Untitled Hearts and Hooves Day Poem

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.
