"Love is not always a harsh and deadly sin" -Michelangelo


Everytime we’re alone

His text alerts ground me

Remind me not to float away

I’m not his


The unfortunate audience for each morning

Watching a stranger sneak out

Passing winks in class

Not mine


Movie night and me tossing a sweater off my seat

He laughs and shrugs

Meaningless

Maybe


A tispy comment or tired hug

Rare touch, single again

On nights he doesn't take someone home

He is here, asleep on the couch

Someday


First kiss as a dare

Back to middle school between shots

Clumsy hands and nervous contact

Stone cold sober

Sooner, closer
