Boy Across the RoadA Poem by Sloan ChambersJust off the top of my head, based after the boy I like...
There was a boy across the street from me
He was just standing there Being all beautiful My heart tugged at his shaggy blonde hair And the soccer ball in his hand His feet tapping to his earphones The hole just under the armpit of his shirt His eyes blue fire Electric chair with every stare He walked across the pebbled road Shadowed by the church on his side of the road I hid in the corner shadows Turning my music down to listen to his feet The were loud getting louder My breath was hot steamy in the air I sunk farther in my corner denying existence The faulty light post displaying tan muscular legs Why are you following me? I'm not I'm just admiring He looks away but I can still see the fire Alluring as hell At that moment I took off my hood I've never seen your full face Why not I thought it wasn't worthy It's nice to look at Thanks So is yours You don't talk much, do you? Nope But I'd spill out my feelings to you He moved closer Some would say too close but I didn't think so He could as close as he wanted You know your face I've been looking at it for a while Really? He had been watching it Yeah, your eyes are beautiful Yours are too Mine are an ugly grey This is boring he smiled his teeth white as always It is I said He embraced me kissing me hard His lips were soft sweet like a pillow we wrapped around each other like weeds around a tree The wall was cold The ground was hard I loved every minute of it
