This is to you
From me
The truth from my eyes
We had history class
I was looking at you from a distance
My mind was the epitome of “Viewer Discretion is Advised”
But, yeah, I’m sure I know now I wasn’t the first
Or second, nor third
To hear this
So let me be straightforward:
From the point that I saw your kissable lips
To your swaying protruding hips
From the point that I managed to look in your eyes
To those curvaceous curves that enticed
I realized
“I liked her.”
Only a few problems though:
About 10-15 others
Were vying for her attention
Toe to toe
All in the same class
All of them wanted to tap that
All of them groping
While I just watched
Wishing I was there

This is to Tami
Yeah, you
The truth
We later became friends
I was the smart one
You wanted to get answers from me
You laughed at my corny jokes
Little did you know,
I wanted some from you, you see
You saw that I wasn’t what I looked like
You got me out of my shell
I didn’t even know how I felt
Was I crushing?
Maybe
Was I lusting?
Most likely
Ah, who am I kidding?
I was trying to act cool
While your body made me drool
Needless to say, I wanted to ****
The chances of that? None, I just shrugged
Until my ears one day heard
“You wanna see my *******?"
I was conflicted
I know what I was instructed
But I had a golden opportunity
She had her hand over her bare breast
Said to me
“It was a test”
If I hadn't professed
Now, it’s obvious

This is to you
This is the truth
You were cool
Although I didn’t get what I wanted
In a way we became kindred
You waved at me
When you were in geometry class
I was in the hall
I smiled
Little did I know we would go on different paths
Little by little I would stop seeing you
Later, I would figure out Two plus two
Equals a tiny new debut

This was to you
Yeah, you
This was the truth
I still think about you
I still think about your voice
I hope you remember me
Cause I **** sure remember you
This is a poem to a girl that I gravitated to for some reason.
