THE CRUSH

I see you

But you don’t see me

I see your incandescent eyes, your undiluted soul

I stand here nakedly

Exposed.

 

I hear you

But you don’t hear me

As your melodic baritone travels about the room, your poetic conversation

I sit here knocked-kneed

Aflutter.

 

I feel you

But you don’t feel me

The sensation of your bare chest under my soft breasts, in my dreams

I am a mystery

Secret.

 

I taste you

But you don’t taste me

Your boyish lips, those pearliest edible perfect teeth near me

I resist them weakly

Breathless.

 

I touch you

And you touch me

Your athletic hands, a conduit of electricity upon my arm

I move barely

Jelly.

 

I want you

But I think you don’t want me

Your dark viscous hair, my hands screaming to caress

I am often frisky

Playful.

 

I see you

But you don't see me

Exposed, aflutter, secret, breathless, jelly, playful

Lady.
