Poems
Feb 2021
Auburn Haired Muse
Your long red hair caused flames to become jealous because they could never compare to your color
Each freckle a kiss I wanted to leave on your body
Your willowy body swaying lithely to Conan Gray while I sat on your bed in amazement that God could create something as ethereal as you
My heart quickened at your touch, even though it was always platonic and nothing more than a brush against my arm or a friendly hug
Every curve in the right place, no matter how much you argued that you were built like a 2x4 plank of wood, everyone wished they were you
Everything about you seemed perfect, right down to your button nose that was covered in blush and bucket hat that was a size too big
You were my best friend, we were all we really had
And you were the first girl I ever loved, not that I ever told you before you left
But I still kept those polaroids and photo booth strips we took at the mall
No matter how hurt I was when you started ghosting me after you began a new life, I'll always think about you
