Oh Hello Haiku
Beautiful woman
commanding my attention
from so far away
More than just your look
I can feel the gravity
pulling from your soul
Fighting the current
But can’t get my head above
the feelings to breathe
Situation bleak
as I stay here paralyzed
Unable to move
Thinking way too much
Without ever acting on
my wildest of dreams
If I never go
I stay safe but never know
our true potential
What’s a man to do
Such strong feelings about you
and my girlfriend too
Beautiful woman
complicating the feelings
that I thought I knew
Willpower stays strong
whenever you are not here
So please come too close
Overthink and flee.
Now with more time to wonder
just what we could be
Wishing in silence
Hoping I’m loud enough for
you to come see me
