Sonnet

by @sankhya-amaravadi

You sit close to me but not quite touching Your graceful fingers drum on the table So many opportunities blooming And you make me feel so safe and stable Please don’t leave me feeling so forsaken The way you smile and laugh is my sunshine I wish one day you would just awaken I am waiting for your lips upon mine But alas, you can never be my love I am selfish for wanting you forever So I’ll just sit here, like a mourning dove Why’d I ever think I was so clever? Don’t think badly of me, ‘cause above all, Loving you has been my only downfall
