Poem

They told me to go with gut 
and guard with my heart
but that armor has been penetrated 
right from the start.
My blood runs its course
by your smell that’s been captured in my veins
release your toxins into my senses 
your aurora keeps me sane.
The smile of yours could burn a hole right through my skin
where your beauty took advantage and climbed right in.

They warned me 
I’m wondering down a dangerous road
I'm taking all the right turns,
and none of them are going to lead me home.
I wish I could call 
ask for directions around your heart
How ironic is it that my phone is dead 
I see the plug 
But my extension cord doesn't reach that far.

Standing in the middle of the room
all these faces can be seen
I scream out for you 
to look at me 
but you’ll never know 
what my words mean
you glance in my direction, with a twinkle in your eye
I fool myself thinking 
that look you gave was mine for the taking 
I shake my head, 
cast my sight down
for I know when I look back at you, 
your face will not be found.

I reach for your hand, 
get a shadow
I hold back my thoughts
No one can know.
Your shoulder brushes up against mine
the goose bumps on my neck
are a dead giveaway
you notice my slight tremble
you ask me why I’m starting to sweat
a nervous laugh escapes my lips.

They warned me it was unhealthy
that I was wishing upon false hope
I’ll escape reality and rely on my dreams
to give me a sense of faith
of what my world could mean
I’d transform myself
into what you’d need
but the moment I wake up
I want to be anything but to be me.
