Nothing I'd Rather
Inspiration hits with a flash, stories written on the go. A rumble of laughter and the tale is heard only in echoes. The wind blows me in a new direction. Whom shall I visit next?
There's nothing I would rather see
Than your smile as you walk to me
There's nothing that I'd rather do
Than have the guts to run to you
There's nothing I would rather say
Than "I love you; don't go away"
There's nothing in my future left
I've got no courage; I'm bereft.

The repetition of 'there's nothing' is a good lead up to the end. It's not foreshadowing exactly but it exists in parallel. I think you've captured your subject nicely. I empathize with the narrator. Good job!
