                                       Untitled Hearts and Hooves Day Poem

Roses are red,
Violets are blue,
I want you to be
My Scootaloo...

I can never really get
The words to come out
Right;
I always stammer
Stutter
Stop
And soon I have no time
Left;

She sits on the other
Side of the room,
The
Right side

And I’m here on this
Side, the lonely, lifeless
Left side.

She’s everything I want to
Be
Strong
Brave
Passionate
Always
Right
Even when she’s not

But I’ll always be
Too scared to say anything
My Scootaloo,
Someday you won’t be
Left
To love

Roses are red,
Violets are blue,
Unrequited love
Sucks,
And all I want is you

To get the hint

Maybe the cards aren’t
Enough,
Maybe the looks too
Subtle,
Maybe I make too
Much
Effort to say it
Without saying it

Instead, I’ll stay
As always, on the
Left,
And you’ll be just
As always, too far
Away to love, on the
Right.

Roses are red,
Violets are blue,
And as long as I’m afraid,
I’ll never have you.

So I’ll be blue, too.
