The Day She Says Yes

By Anurag Roy

I am waiting for the day,

The day, she will finally say,

Yes Dear, I love you too,

And this love, has found a way, to me from you.

But for now the look on her face,

After my confession, tells me that she's in a daze.

It made me realize, that it was a mistake,

To risk the friendship we had for something I thought we could make.

But apologising for what I confessed,

Will make matters worse instead.

So I'm ready to wait long, long enough,

To make her mine, even if it becomes a wait too tough.

She believes I'm an optimist

But deep down, I am a pessimist

I know this quite clearly, that there is more chance,

Of denial and a broken heart than her falling for me and holding my hand to dance.

The day she says 'Yes', will be a glorious one,

And if ever it happens, I will consider that I won,

In the game that we call 'Love', where it's too difficult to find,

A person who possesses our desired needs of a good heart and mind.
