Fear In Rejection

On nights like these I miss her most.
  To have her here to pull her close.
  Why can’t I tell her how I feel inside?
  My beating heart or my foolish pride.
  Her flowing hair and silky skin,
  To be without would be a sin.
  I must tell her!
  And she will be mine!
  I think I will tell her…
 The next time.
