Letter to You.
by Lyn
(pennsylvania)
Walking down the hallway
Couldn’t help but wanting to know the feel of your lips against mine
So I keep my hands in my pocket and look straight forward
In the garage
Your bare chest spotted with motor oil captures my attention
Alluring as it is, I look away.
Everything about you.
The very thought of you
Makes my heart take the beat of a drum
Afraid to tell you.
Afraid of a response.
I pretend everything is normal.
No, I don’t get butterflies at the very sight of you.
No, the image of your lips curling into a smile doesn’t take my breathe away
No, I don’t love you.
