I can’t even write about you
because the moment
you enter my mind my
heart starts to quiver and my lips
stop beating; maybe it’s the other way around.
My hearing is fuzzy, eyes unfocused,
fingers tapping nervously.

You are not pretty words written in my
memories; You are barbed wire
and ice and stone and I cannot stop
loving You.

It's like he's untouchable. Enough to tease my heart but too far out of my grasp.
