A Boy
We have not said
I love you yet
But I don’t know when
I should say it
Because my mind is a wreck
That I crawl through
Every second of every day
Confused
My emotions are a hurricane
And you’re at the center
You spin me in circles
And I am lost
Yet there are those moments
When you say something
And I am filled with joy
I giggle and blush
Because you’ve touched me
You say I miss you
And I believe you
But I am filled with doubt
When you are absent for too long
I want to be your everything
But your actions
Fill me with conflictions
Maybe it’s me
Not skilled in the art
Of real love
Only versed in midnight lies
And hands between thighs
And the shadows that haunt me
How long can I hold on
I don’t know
But my stubborn heart
Won’t let go of you
And your smile
Your voice
Your laugh
You
I don’t understand
What goes on inside your
Broken mind
But I want to so please
Let me in so I can help
Ease your pain and you can ease mine
