A Boy Who Loves a Girl

There is a boy who loves a girl.
A girl whom he never expected to come into his life. 
A girl whom he never expected to be head over heels for.
A girl who seems to make everything perfect.
A girl whose heart he can never own. Yet. At least that's what he assures himself.

"She's worth fighting for." Thinks the boy every second.
"You're stupid." They say.

It's been almost six years. People come and go, but the girl stays.
"It's another day of fighting." Thinks the boy every morning when he wakes up.
That girl. His very first thought in the morning. And his last at nightfall.

"Just forget her, it's been too long. Open your heart for another." People say.
He knows, it is not that easy to forget someone who changes him for the better.

"What if the worst case comes? What if she sets his heart for someone else? Have you made your plan B?" Says his friend one day.
He freezes, but he keeps standing strong. He knows, there is no plan B or plan-any-other-letters-in-the-alphabet.

"Take the risk. Tell her. You lose nothing. You can't lose something you never had." They say, again.
He knows, he will lose everything, because this girl is his everything.
He knows, loving her in silence is better than to lose this girl completely.

He blames himself often. For not being brave enough. For not taking the chance. For the moments he missed out. 
He blames himself, knowing what they say is probably true.
But he never blames himself for loving this girl, because why do you have to blame something so beautiful?

All he knows is that...

he loves her.

Still.
