I don’t remember how it was we met Somewhere along the way, you succeeded in catching my attention And somewhere along the way, I succeeded in sparking your interest And so here I stand, Not naked but honestly And here you are, Virtually fearless – Which I attribute to your lack of experience and it seems so fresh For all of this I am honored by your infatuation And I embrace your optimism And I indulge in the idea of you someday being entangled in my arms Such a welcomed investment Half habitually I sexualize our friendship, Half-heartedly I dismiss the thought And I know that perhaps you can relate So I’ll climb the latter, but never dive So I’ll pretend that I want you over me So I’ll reach for your hand, but never actually touch skin And so here I stand, Still holding my breath And here you are, Still so dedicated – Which I attribute to your understanding of what it means to be a man For all this I am touched by your romanticism And I anticipate your next move And I crave the freedom to trace the length of your body without feeling guilty Such a stinging surprise 4.28.02 That's right, I ate your fries. |

A damn good piece Memina. Sincerely, SaVerite Every second that passes you are one second older. You'll never get that second back. |

Dark Enchantress- This is excellent! You drew me in and had me hanging on every word. Outstanding job of expressing these feelings, and making them real for the reader. VERY well done! Hugs, ~Vicky "...until you have read the verse on his heart, |

Wow, this is so much of what I'm seeing right now in my life. I really relate to this, minus the admiration. I'm still in the unappreciated, blind stage of things, but I do recognize the greatness of this poem. Very well written. I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust. |
