Ok y’all…tomorrow is Valentine’s Day and there’s a girl whom I work with which I am getting serious feelings for. These feelings are quite mutual from what she says, and I believe her. She has a boyfriend who isn’t treating her like a lady, and is on his way out the door in short order if things keep on the way they’ve been going for some time now (actually, I think things are beyond reconciliation between them at this point). We’ve been great friends for about six months, and have enjoyed getting to know each other. Lately, there’s been some serious flirting going on, and I can only speak for myself when I say I hope there’s more for us.
Here’s what I just did today. I left work early so I could make it to the florist before closing time. I bought a $40 bouquet with six red roses, a bunch of daisies (her fave), some other flowers which I don’t know the name of, etc etc. in a really cool glass vase. I also purchased one fake rose. I arranged the fake rose in with the real ones and grabbed a card that said “Thinking of You” and on that card I taped a sewing needle and wrote “…want to know what I’m thinking? Pop the balloon”.
Now I’m sure you’re wondering where all this balloon talk came from. Well, I sat down this evening after work and wrote her a poem cuz I know she likes poems. It took some work, but I think it’s a good one. Once it was written, I rolled it up and stuck it inside a balloon, inflated the balloon, and tied it. Here’s what the poem said:
I know just how much
you fancy a rhyme.
I’m far from a poet,
so this might take some time.
But my time is well spent,
if I spend it on you
'cuz you are quite special;
don’t deny it, it’s true!
I know you’re not mine,
and you may never be,
but some lucky nights,
you’re mine in my dreams.
No matter what happens
as our days pass us by,
know I’ll be your friend,
'till the last flower dies.
Of course, one of those flowers will never die cuz it’s fake
I want your opinions (guys and girls) on if you think what I just did was a good thing or if I overstepped my bounds. Girls, would you appreciate a gift like this? Guys, what do you think?
Thanks you all I sure hope I did something good
