She was a young girl that lived across the street. She had the cutest face and dimples that was like no other. I was and have always been a shy boy. Every time she stepped out of her house across the street, it was as if I had an automatic notification. I would always peep through our window and watch her walk gracefully, I would stare at her and wallow in self-pity because I wasn’t bold enough to reach out to her and every time she walks pass my house and glanced at my window, I would jump off out of fear, hoping she didn’t notice I was starring.
I had zero confidence in myself and I always took out that frustration by hitting anything and everything in sight till I fill so much pain and then I would sulk and cry the pain out. It was so much torture. I just couldn’t help but think of her every time I saw her and even when I didn’t but I was always shy of relieving myself of this gruesome pain and excessive burden until one day, she came out of her house and as usual, I peeped through the window. She walked through the street with so much tranquility and carefulness. It almost seemed like she knew I was starring at her.
She looked back and waved. I got heart struck immediately and swiftly moved away from the window not knowing that was a good bye wave. I smiled and was happy about this but unfortunately she was reported dead the next day as she was hit by a bus on her way back home. I felt extremely traumatized as tears couldn't stop pouring from my eyes and everyother part of my body knowing fully well that my emotions and feelings for her died in me without expressing myself.

LESSON - NEVER EVER ALLOW YOUR DREAMS BE LIKE A MAN WHO CAN'T EXPRESS HIS FEELINGS TO A LADY UNTIL HE LOOSES HIS CHANCE AND ALLOWS THIS FEELING DIE AND DECAY IN HIM. BE CONFIDENT ENOUGH TO TAKE ACTIONS TO ACHIEVING YOUR DREAMS AND ASPIRATIONS UNTIL IT AGRRES TO FALL IN LOVE WITH YOU AND OBEY YOUR EVERY COMMAND. YOU CAN MAKE IT ONLY IF YOU FACE YOUR FEARS AND TAKE THOSE BIG STEPS SO FIND THE KNOWLEDGE ESSENTIAL FOR YOU TO ACHIEVE YOUR FUTURE AMBITIONS AND LET OUT YOUR CAGED POTENTIALS.
