Where are you

I’m there because she’s there
Though the secret of love
My eyes declare
When they not only watch
But begin to stare
Oh how I wish I could 
Clear the air
And show her with which
My heart would swear
Make plain with words
What my soul would bare
Come to terms with my conscious 
And make it square
Incurable shyness and 
Inexplicit scare
Oh how I wish I could show
My care 
And make my wanting
Realy clear
Yet tell her I would not dare
The fear of rejection
Keeps me there

This is such a beautiful poem of yearning for someone so much but the fear of rejection holds back what the heart desires. Such a relatable, sad situation and it will resonate with so many. There are so many times in life when you ‘miss out’ because rejection would appear to be a greater loss if one did take the chance. A reflective read for me. Thank you for sharing. Blessings to you :)
