#WritcoPoemPrompt42

In the dawn's embrace, my heart awoke,
A longing soul, a love bespoke.
For in her words, she sought to know,
What thoughts of her did flood and flow.

But words, they failed me, trapped inside,
As fear and doubt began to collide.
So off I went, my friend at my side,
To seek her out, no longer to hide.

With rain's embrace, we both got soaked,
Yet undeterred, our spirits spoke,
Through winding paths, his guidance pure,
To her campus, a love so sure.

I called ahead, my voice a plea,
That I was coming, just to see,
Her radiant smile, her eyes aglow,
To pour my heart, to let her know.

As raindrops danced upon our heads,
We waited, sheltered, hearts like threads,
And in that moment, I felt alive,
The world suspended, love's gentle dive.

Then she appeared, a vision fair,
But to my dismay, she wasn't there,
The spot I claimed, in naive belief,
She searched in vain, a sea of grief.

In desperation, with words so true,
I pleaded, begged, that she'd see through,
My foolishness, my honest mistake,
And with forgiveness, our hearts would take.

She listened, pondered my remorse,
And slowly, love began its course.
For in her grace, she found a way,
To forgive, and our love to sway.

That single memory, forever etched,
Of rain-soaked dreams, where hearts were fetched.
Though faltered words may fill that space,
Love's journey weaves with gentle grace.
