If only I had the guts.

"Hi. I just need to start by saying that I never do this.
I never just walk up to a guy that I don't really know and start talking to him.
We aren't even to the point of a nodded greeting yet.
I'm not entirely sure that you even really know my name.
But I need to tell you this.

I have observed you over the past few weeks.
I think that you have some amazing qualities.
Other than being cute and funny, I mean.
You clearly love Jesus.
And you love people and I think that you want to show Jesus to people.
I like that.

For some reason, I am reassured when I see your face.
And I want to see it more often.
I want to get to know you for real.
I don't want to decide yet whether I like you, because that's just not fair.

But seriously, I don't do things like this.
It took everything in me to even say 'hi.'
I don't know what you want to do with this information,
But I needed you to know.

Um. Okay. Bye."

Yeah. If only.
