i know a boy who sits behind me always tapping his pen tapping and tapping fingertips spelling i am anxious i know a boy who walks me to class looks at me before I leave his foot keeps tapping and tapping and I keep waiting for him to tell me goodbye so I can go to class i know a boy who cannot stop like a car alarm on christmas morning like police sirens underwater a boy afraid of the pause the rest, the wait, the halt the slow motion of eyes meeting, elbows accidentally touching words becoming deep breaths, hesitating instead I know a boy who is still a child and over and over, i loved him "still"

love letter to the boy with ADHD
i know a boy who sits behind me always tapping his pen tapping and tapping fingertips spelling i am anxious i know a boy who walks me to class looks at me before I leave his foot keeps tapping and tapping and I keep waiting for him to tell me goodbye so I can go to class i know a boy who cannot stop like a car alarm on christmas morning like police sirens underwater a boy afraid of the pause the rest, the wait, the halt the slow motion of eyes meeting, elbows accidentally touching words becoming deep breaths, hesitating instead I know a boy who is still a child and over and over, i loved him "still"
