Unrequited
Stumbling laughter
as alcohol no longer burns,
tickling down throat.
Dancing abandon
beneath the blacklights
and the swarming glow.
I, who am so
reserved, quiet,
safe.
Unnerving nerve,
secreted desire
driving for once.
Observing him,
approaching him,
kissing him.
Horrifying repulse,
shoved away,
alone.
Oh
you poor
undesired
thing.
