His voice came out in a tremble
Almost like he never learned to speak
Standing in front of her, his palms were sweaty
And his legs felt tender and weak
This was the moment he was waiting for
He finally got his chance
But he couldn’t find the words to say
He wished he could say it with just a glance
A nervous smile spread across his face
As he wiped the sweat from his brow
In his he was thinking “I better do it”
There was no better time than now
All the build up had led to this
It was his shining moment in the sun
The first word “I…”stumbled from his lips
And instantly he felt the desire to run
But out of nowhere came a sudden burst of energy
And he lifted his head to meet her gaze
While everything behind her was blurry
By her beauty he was no longer fazed
He leaned in to kiss her cheek
And gently caressed her face with his hand
He closed his eyes tightly, and with no hesitation
Told her “I….can no longer be your man”
