“I’m afraid of getting close to you, to tell you what I seeBecause I don’t know if you’ll take me seriously,Or you’ll just laugh at me. You’re shy and don’t talk much, but when you do, it’s wisely.You don’t tend to smile, but when you do, it’s beautifully.You don’t really talk to me, but when you do, you make me weak,Weak to my knees,And I find myself falling for you as I whisper your name gently. Yet... I’ve seen them all, slowly approaching,with intentions that are nothing but sickening,and it pains me to noticethat they all picture you as if you were just a thing,since it’s so unfair and degrading. Oh how I wish…How I wish I could be braveAnd confess the feelings that are nothing but grave.To admit just how much I actually do craveTo have you by my side and keeping me safe. Your presence makes my entire frame flush,And since I am so crass,I talk back to you being so harsh,When I actually want you to hug me as I blush.It’s all because of you, Yuri, since you send me into such a rush…But sadly, what I feel, is nothing but a stupid unrequited crush.” You are trembling, your lips are shaking and your eyes are wide open as you read the poem I wrote in which I poured all my thoughts and feelings for you. I’d give anything and everything in order to be swallowed by the Earth in this exact moment as I wonder why exactly did I even give you the poem in the first place. However, I’m taken off guard by your response. “Oh Natsuki, I-I feel flattered… And I’m so happy t-to know that my feelings for you are not a one-sided thing…”
