Love. Just when you're at its peak, it can drag you to the depths of despair. So why fall in love? Is the moment of happiness really worth all the sadness it brings along? Is it really better to love then to not love at all?

However, whenever I see him from afar,

His long, raven hair would ever so glisten.

His devilish smile would make my heart go wild.

Yet, whenever he ignores me, my heart feels as if it had been shattered into a thousand pieces.

How can love be as hot as a summer day and as cold as the longest winter months?

I ever so long to confess my love,

but I am a coward;

afraid of what his response may be.

Why would he fall for a petite girl like me?

My hair is ever in a mess.

I am short and pathetically weak.

No one with the right mind would find me striking.

So why do I still long for him?
