The cute poem 'My Mind Froze,' by Sabrina Rosso, is the portrayal of secret/unexpressed love. Written in descriptive manner, the poem illustrates a love that has not been expressed for the reason that girl's mind freezes up whenever she encounters her beloved. Despite all her efforts to convey her love to him, she has not been able to do it. Every time she tries, the things don't go the way she wants. The last minute debacle/freezing of mind makes her life miserable. The poem is an excellent illustration of the enigma called 'proposing.' Even the bravest can fail in situations like this. A cute description of the feelings of an innocent girl and her unexpressed desires makes the poem an attractive piece of writing.
My Mind Froze
Last night I thought it through
And realized I was going to talk to you
I rehearsed it inside my head
And told myself no matter what
I was going to tell you how I feel
When I woke up the next morning
Getting ready to see you
I went through what I was going to say to you
Once I got to school
And went to my locker
I walked upstairs and I saw you standing there
My mind blanked
I could no longer think
Of what I was going to say
So I did what I did every day
I walked past you and smiled your way
And lucky for me you smiled back
And made me feel extremely happy
Because if I can't talk to you in words
At least I can try and let you know how I feel
With my eyes
And my actions...
I love you.
