a classroom setting.
words and hearts
litter my notes.
yours is blank,
save for messy scribbles.
i pretend not to care,
you give that all-knowing smirk
and the game is on.
red scrunchy,
leather band watch.
a moment of silence,
i giggle, you grin.
surroundings forgotten
as the world held its breath
that very afternoon.
a conspiratorial smile.
stars draping the dark background.
nothing feels as good
as just lying next to you.
words unnecessary,
our actions speak louder than words.
i just can't help myself.
you've pulled me into a world
that i never want to leave.
i'll follow you anywhere.
what we could have been, 1:20 am.
