a confession:
i turn to my side when i see you heading into class
because i know
it hides my fat more
but when i turn to see you
you aren't looking at my stomach
or my thighs
or my breasts
you're looking
right into my eyes
and i didn't know
how much i wanted that instead
until now- yours are bluer than his
