My sweet teenager,
life makes you grow up so fast.
There are so many things
that you have yet to learn.
Rest your head on your desk presently.
For right now,
the world rests on you.
If you think questioning the world around you
is bad,
try **ignorance.
Is it okay if I just
listened to your voice
*one more time?
We're just friends.*

The scorpion sting.
The fatal blow.
The final breath.

The friend zone.
One alone cannot hold up the world
but if we all use our strength together,
we can hold it up for generations to come.
For once in my life,
I finally feel

*okay.
Whenever our hands
accidentally touch...
I feel electric charges
crawling up my arms
like vines.
Your soft, supple hands
brush mine and
awkward silence commences
as I scan more items to check out.
Your warmth penetrates
my frigid skin and I
no longer feel
devoid of **love.
The heart composes music
that nobody can hear
except yourself.
