(p)l(a)to(nic)

my love for her is strictly platonic, because what else could it be? I sit on her couch and smile at every single word she says. Her soft hand touches my knee, exposed by my shorts, as she laughs. Out of nowhere she states, “I like the idea of heaven, but only if there’s not a hell.” I realize then what triggered that statement. we were talking about religion, ironic to me is just that, we were talking about religion while I worship the ground she walks on. My love for her is strictly platonic, I worship her, but only as a friend.
