Aug 2017
flushed
as a dusty rose color is painted onto my face
dancing across my cheekbones

hushed
as my complete vocabulary
escapes my thoughts with each airy breath

rushed
as my heart beat quickens
to catch up with the speed in which my emotions flow

crushed
as I realize the damage my body will endure
when I lose you

pale is my flush
crying, there is no hush
heart no longer in a rush
now, your love leaves me
clinging on to a hopeless crush
