If I secretly love her, maybe I'll just call her by her nickname. Because I want to express my feelings in a way that isn't too obvious. A nickname is a way to show my love without having to say it directly. It's also a way to get closer to her without making her uncomfortable. POEM: Secret glances, Your eyes hold me captive. A feeling, That overflows my heart with love. I can't say it, What's in my heart, so I secretly talk to you by your nickname. So in my dreams, You are my love, my offering.
