Take a Leap of Faith


Take a leap of faith and say it.

I really like you...

There you said it, 

a wave of relief washes over you,

But it is brief as you become nervous about the response.

 

They look at you and pause,

you suddenly feel dumb and emarbarassed,

so you look down and await the rejection.

But what you weren't expecting is a kiss.

 

Quite possibly the best response to your question.

If only we had the guts to do it all the time.
