Each time we crossed on the way
I was tempted to pop the question
But my gender pride and fear of rejection
Allowed those potential moments slipped away.

Those times we came so close,
My heart poundered like thunder.
I yearned for your touch, which I wondered
Was so far away, yet so close.

It never crossed my thoughtful mind
That the one I admired is my secret admirer too!
But whenever our eyes met, something between the two
Told me you'll not resist those thoughts in my mind.

Do you believe in miracles and dreams?
Well, dreams do come true , thoughts become actions.
When at last my secret admirer popped the question,
My Yes flowed through my lips like a stream.
