I Am Afraid of Rejection

I'm afraid she will reject me. Say no and turn away never to see me again. I don't want to scare her away with what I have to say. I don't want her to break my heart. I'm afraid I won't be able to pick up the pieces once they fall. I have to ask her. Its something I must do. I pray she doesn't reject me. I'm so scared my body trembles just thinking about the question that's been pressing on my mind. *Will you be my girlfriend?* Now I just need to say it out loud and to her. I don't have the best of luck and nothing ever goes well for me. But I would be a fool to wait, right? Right?
