Love Shouldn't Be One Sided

Boy meets girl.

Boy falls in love.

Boy can't get girl out of his mind,

She is all that he's ever dreamed of

And all that he will ever need.

Boy lingers around the spot that they first met.

Hoping, wishing, praying she will appear again.

Boy sees girl.

Boy knows girl is the one.

Boy gets to know that girl visits this place often.

Boy gets to know the days and the times girl will be present

At this place.

Boy comes around every time.

Boy studies girl's features.

Like the way her big, golden brown eyes glisten in the sun

Or the way her fingers move when she traces the big glowing moon at

Night.

Boy listens to what girl likes.

One day, boy gets the courage to approach girl while she's all alone.

The setting is perfect!

It's dark and quiet.

There's hardly a soul in sight!

The moon is beautiful and bright.

It's going to be the most perfect night!

Boy had spent all day getting ready.

Wearing that cologne, she said she liked on a man.

Holding those flowers, she said she adored.

Boy even had the chocolates she said she was craving the other day!

But, girl is nothing like boy thought she'd be.

Her pearly white smile disappeared as soon as she saw him approach.

Her big, golden brown eyes were glaring into boy's soul.

Girl clutched her purse and scooted to the edge of the green

Park bench that she always sat on.

Girl wouldn't accept the flowers or the chocolates.

She kept shaking her head no and refused to make the slightest

Bit of eye contact.

Boy told her that he listened to what she liked and what she

Wanted.

Boy told her that he's adored her since the day he laid eyes on her.

Girl tried to get up and run, but boy grabbed her and sat her back down.

Boy didn't get what the hurry was.

Girl started to fight boy and shout:

Creep!

Stalker!

Help me!

I don't even know you!

Boy had no choice but to grab her and take her before anyone heard her

Cries.

Boy didn't understand just why she was acting this way.

For attention, maybe?

But she was not going to ruin their first date!

Boy brought girl home and tied her down

Maybe she'd like the spaghetti boy made.

Boy's mom taught him this recipe when boy was just eight!

Girl pleaded that she had a husband and kids to go home to

And they'd call the police if she doesn't make it home when

She is supposed to.

Husband and kids!

That shattered boy's heart.

All of the days, he's spent watching her.

Loving her.

She was with another the whole time!

Boy had no choice but to lock her up in his basement as he took a moment

To cry.

All of things, he's done for her and she breaks his heart just like that.

If she can't see that boy is a nice guy then she doesn't deserve to be.

There is no other boy that will love girl like he.

From now on, she will never be.

For, she will remain right here in heaven with the three

Other girls who rejected boy just like she.
