Ease

You think about How he would touch you With an ease That felt unfair. He’d take your hand, Help you up, Catch you by the hip, And smile unintentionally. You still remember The day on the beach. You backed up Into a hole. And he caught you With ease, An arm around your waist. ‘Don’t go falling for me,’ He said as he steadied you. He doesn’t remember But you thought of it a lot. He was right, You’re the easiest to woo. Look how quickly you fell for him, How he said he didn’t want To lead you on, Not knowing There’d been something there All along.
