Brown blinking handsome
Irresistible genuine smile.
His eyes suddenly shut tight,
Inner battle
Avoiding the glimpse of mine.
“Don’t do that,” he said.
But I couldn’t look away.
I poured my feelings,
set my soul on fire,
and promised his happiness,
all in a momentary stare.
“I’m scared of how you make me feel.”
His words choked my heart.
Guilt battling love,
How could I be so sure
after 48 hours?
