"did i hurt you?"
my heart is beating
louder
than a drum,
i can feel it in my ears.
your skin is against mine.
i can feel your warmth.
i do not know how to respond
to you.
i hold my breath
not wanting to be
intoxicated by your smell.
your emerald green eyes
once again
bore into my lifeless gray eyes.
they, your eyes,
were brimming with curiosity
once again.
you take my stare
as an answer, and you laugh.
"you're a quiet one, aren't you, now?"
you put your hands behind your head,
as you rest on my lap.
i could not look into your eyes
any longer,
it is like looking into a galaxy
hidden within yourself.
i close my lips in a tight line,
feeling uneasy
as i turn my attention
to the pretty blue butterfly
which flew beside me.
