i know she wants me
wants is used expressively
the gradual movements closer
the batterings of over 'made-up' eyelashes
the pursed lips
asking politely to be introduced to my frowning ones
i know she likes me
the unanswered calls
and ignored texts
i flip my phone over
and turn away
from something that could be
something that has been
i dont want to hurt her
sounds so falsely noble
but its the truth
am i aiming higher
is it arrogance
or insecurity
either way i cant apologize enough
