17

by OddOdysseyPoet

A warm kiss, I was touched by a summer- a bright smile in an abyss, of your touch chasing after me in the darkness _17 kisses,_ One for everyday I got to see your face a second extra, just before you had to go away By the third's; I had enough to remember yesterday, and a forthcoming excitement to kiss you another day again Five working days, of waiting to kiss you by the weekend, secret kisses; too shy to kiss in front of our six friends Several times I had lost my tongue, and words to speak after, knowing me well enough, I ate all of my words with a spoonful of awkward laughter And after nine conversations; our texts started to read out a bit more mischievous, loudly with thoughts of kissing thereafter So by ten, I was filled with an intent to be a slave to my feelings of ecstasy being a cunning master Elevating a count of eleven days of weary, of me missing you, though it's only been a day, it felt like twelve days of blues Searching my eyes of any remaining tears I have to shed, thirteen tear drops are what I had left- _so few_ As my fortunes to have found someone quite daring like you, had my searching through fourteen versions of myself, And by fifteen, my sixteen year old self was the only time I found the confidence to approach you By seventeen, I sort of fell in love; for a moment being young as always to such an experience, it only lasted a moment So by after 17, I eventually grew out of love, growing up to keep on searching for a true love experience Do teens ever find true love!
