About Him

I feel he completes
he's embedded in my heart beat
thumping, thumping
to the rhythm we can't see
he's so awkward it's endearing
and for our conversation 
I yearn
dare I recall his kiss - 
a quick brush in the dark
- that made me burn
oh, how he must learn
the courage to 
set alight that sweet spark
on my mouth
with fluttering anticipation I dream
-he is a refuge for my mind, 
a haven for my heart - 
this boy who has a hold on me
