poem no.7: dedicated to the one i love: 

-

I see you once a week. 

Torture. 

Every Monday,

From 6-8:30 pm.

And then that's it until next week. 

How cruel. 

I may only see you once a week, 

But you run through my mind 24/7.

Every single day. 

Everything just intensifies on Mondays.

How I long to see you more. 

All I want is to spend time with you. 

And this is my version of a love letter,

One you'll never read, 

And I'm writing it as if this whole book is written for you. 

Maybe one day I'll have the courage to talk to you about anything class. 

Anything else, really. 

You've just texted me and I instantly felt heat rush to my cheeks. 

It isn't fair. 

You have complete control over me

And I can't do anything about it. 

I can't stop it and, 

To be perfectly honest, 

I don't think I want to. 

What you do to me is so cruel, 

You don't know that, 

But it is. 

And for some reason, 

I long for it. 

The little attention you give me is enough to make me crave it

And feel deprived without it. 

Starving even. 

That may sound a bit dramatic,

But it's true. 

You've got me wrapped around your finger

And I'm perfectly fine with that. 

I just hope you feel the same. 

Could it be possible that you are on the other side of the phone,

Butterflies erupting in your stomach, 

Just like they are in mine? 

That just seems too good to be true. 

Until Monday...
