Lately, I have been postponing
Writing about the palms of your hands.
Procrastinating thoughts written down
Concerning the color of your eyes.
In fear of looking at you in a positive light
Once more.
You see, when I dedicate verses
To the specifics of your smile.
I tend to get caught up
In feelings of attachment.
And I live with the fear
That you will leave just as easily as you came.
I suppose I will let myself cling
To every lingering thought of you.
Allow myself to ponder the rasp of your voice
In the early hours of the morning.
Allot myself time to reminisce
On the tenderness of your touch.
Slowly, I am becoming more attached;
Sticking to you like sweet honey.
Your words are half of a chainlink fence;
And mine connect with yours exclusively.
