Dear Anthony T.T,

If I came in close with your back against the wall
Took my hand placed it on your chest while the other hand on the wall
Kept me upright while I stared into your icy ocean eyes,
Drew in closer and closer letting our breaths take the chance and dance,
Closed my eyes and gave you kiss
Would that have awakened the butterflies?

If I pulled away after acting on that impulse
Took my hand and let my fingers act on their impulse
(Which is to play with your hair as if a party was to start)
Let my fingers caress while “I love you” I confessed
Would that have quickened your heart?

Tell me,

If I led you to my room where there was a bed to lie on
Closed my eyes as I rested on you while the lights were not on
Breathed in the aroma of wintergreen while I pictured the rose you drew
Lied next to you as I cuddled with the door locked so people wouldn't muddle
Would that have let it emerge the “I love you too”?

Sincerely,
Francisco D.H
