You

Hands on my skin

They caress away my fears

Whispers in my ear

That tickle my soul

Lips touch my lips

And stars erupt

From the space

That once separated us

I grasp onto you

To every strand and thread

Afraid that you’ll unravel

At my touch

All I want to do

Is hold you close to me

And feel your warmth

Drain the ice from my heart

I feel your breath

On my skin

As you bless my lips

With a summer breeze

You push me down

And I see the light in your eyes

Your eyes close

As I open my eyes

I wipe the slumber

From my weary eyes

And sit up in my chair

As the chiming bell rings

You give me a smile

And I feel sick inside

As you walk by with your hand entwined

In the hand of another girl’s
