If you make me smile and my heart flutter, why is it that I couldn't even ask your name?
It's like peeking through a slightly open door, revealing little but wanting more.
Am I too scared? Or tired?
Many times I thought I have mustered enough courage to finally ask but once I am at the door I am, again, reduced to a fumbling fool.
"Is your name really spelled with a 'y''? I ask, a silly attempt at small talk.
"Yes," you say. Then you break into a wide open smile -- those supple lips, i wonder how it feels on mine.
I could drown in your eyes you know, whose tiny sparkles remind me of the sea glistening under the moonlight.
Something draws me to you. Something I don't know. Something irrational. Something exciting.
I wonder if you wear too much of a perfume so I could smell you.
But there would be no need for that, I tell you, because I could imagine you next to me and all I want to feel is the warmth of your body.
If only, if only I wasn't too scared to ask for your name.
I thought i was so much braver.
Maybe one day, I will.
Or maybe I won't.
