Amazing really, my feelings for you an impossible cross to
Bear.
Cross indeed, because you’re completely in the
Dark, flitting past — beautiful and forbidden — your smile makes me
Euphoric, I
Feel lost, never to be
Grounded. Your laugh makes my
Heart leap,
Inhibitions lower,
Joy rise, it makes me want to
Kiss you,
Laugh with you,
March into the sunset, but alas it’s for
Naught as I’m not nearly
Open enough with you. Your
Pretty eyes survey all before you, but not this, a
Queen of your domain unaware of
Rebellion? Subversion? Deceit? Unaware of my desire to feel
Soft lips on mine
To walk with you, to rake fingers through your
Unworldly hair, this attraction is
Vexing, because you’re one of my closest friends
We’ve known eachother for some time — met up, watched movies, read
Xeroxed pages of trashy ads, attended conventions, discussed books.
Yet here I am, hopelessly smitten. My
Zeal, my attraction, my desire; so unwanted by me, but we’ve come full circle. Alas.
