Too Young And Too Shy Poem by Lee Boueri

Too Young And Too Shy

Rating: 5.0


It was easier to say goodbye
than stand there clumsy
19 and shy
You said "Hello"
My mouth went dry
If only I had thought of a witty reply
There might have been a you and I

But those crystal blue eyes looking my way
made my knees go weak
and my body sway
That's why I ran away
I still regret it to this day

This happened to me more than once! I was also shy as a child and young man. Enjoyed reading this.

An honest recall of a chance for love which passed you by. To regret is natural.
