Love Is Discovered

When the leaves turn color.
I will be undercovered.
The real me will come knocking at your door.
Since my love for you has appeared once more.
I will try and break through my barriers.
What I am trying to do is much scarier.
I am trying to tell you that I love you.
My words have to come from the bottom of my heart to be true.
Why is this so hard?
I tried to practice what I was going to telling you in my yard.
“I love you.” Why can’t I say it to your face?
I just want to be alone with you in some place.
Somewhere alone.
Somewhere we won’t be shown.
Just in case you tell me to not talk to you.
What should I do?
I just want to come out and say it.
I just want to fit.
Fit what you want in a girl.
I just hope you give me a whirl.
I will show you what you truly mean to me.
I have to count to three.
“One, Two…”
I don’t know what to do.
Take a deep breath.
Here comes Seth.
Here goes nothing.
I am obviously crushing.
“I love you.”
My heart flew.
He grabbed me and pulled me in close.
He pulled out a rose.
Silently saying, I love you too.
