Temin is the boy in the cover, the protagonist. And this poem is from the point of view of Temin when he confessed to Vihan, his crush.
Temin woke up the next day with a headache.
A usual for him after a night of crying. He went up to his desk and grabbed the CR book that hid all the poems he had been writing. He wanted to reread the poem he wrote.
A toxic trait, it let gone would do so much good for his life. After a short while he found the poem and under which was another that he wrote about the time when they were together.
Re reading it would destroy him. He knew that. Temin knew that damn well. Yet he took the poem and began reading it to immerse himself in the bygone memories.
It would shatter his damaged heart and he knew it.
It would destroy his broken heart, he damn well knew it.
But despite that he picked the paper up and read the title, " How I became yours and you became mine."
You can get addicted to a certain feelings of your choice and Temin's one was misery.
How I became yours and you became mine
A wildflower inside the pocket of my uniform
some hiding from the world
Some peeking through the hem.
About my feelings YOU I should inform
You are not in my world
So YOU don't know them
I looked at your sun-kissed face
An orangish brown hue coloured your skin
Your very being is absolutely insane
It tempts me so much to commit a sin.
Black hair wet from sweat brushed back
Some stuck to your forehead
Evening sun rays running down your body
The sound of the vehicles and the sound of the stream
All blended together in to a blissful melody.
The fairies have painted the world in orange
It is giving birth to new emotions and brand new feelings
I get a feeling a feeling so strange
When I look at you lying on the grass.
An ice packet hanging from your teeth
You sucked it slowly amidst the breeze
That played with your hair , the sight made me freeze
An epiphany I had , is it love that I feel?
I looked away from you
While panicking too much
My head hitting the handle of my bike
You looked at me
While moving closer
Your hand reaching out to touch my head.
"Are you OKAY?" you asked.
And this was our moment.
"I think I love you"
I replied.
No one saw the ice packet dropping to the ground
The grassroots soaking up the sugar sweet syrup.
My throat dried up
I was choking on air.
I want to cry alone
Feelings I can't bare.
Your eyes they looked at me with a blank expression
The terror I felt was honesty next level.
"What did you say"
YOU asked from me.
And my heart exploded.
Words felt heavy , I was dumb founded.
Yet my words, I quietly repeated.
"I THINK I LOVE YOU"
That's what I said.
I thought you'd look at me to make me dead.
But no you didn't give me that look of death.
( death glare)
But instead you kissed my head.
My heat dropped when you leaned against me
You asked for no consent
And I could care less
You smelled like sweat and freshly cut grass.
my heart felt like it was being cut by glass
Not in a bad way but because of happiness
Because of the shock I got from your kiss
This moment right now is a pure bliss
A moment in my life I will forever miss.
Orange is a symbol of fertility ;) and the colour symbolizes happiness
