The girl

clacking down the street
in her loud heels
and promiscuous T-shirt
could be the girl for you.

She has the potential to be everything you’re looking for
everything you’re dreaming of
everything you’ve ever needed
but she cannot fulfill anything for you
unless
you speak to her
and
you won’t
because
you are a coward.

The sooner you admit that,
the sooner you will be able
to begin your new life
and ignore
the wealth of beauties clacking down the street
that might have been waiting
for a better you.
