Angst

Teenage boy
Beautiful angel
In his dreams
Desires him
She takes the lead
His rational part
Knows
The odds are split
Back in reality
He freezes
And with inaction
The chance is gone

  1. Maybe if he stopped daydreaming, he could seize the chance next time when/if it comes up again (:

  3. Thinking and daydreaming get in the way. Sometimes you have to go for it.
