UntitledA Poem by dhohoFrom a different time in my life.
You know that feeling they talk about in books?
When butterflies start fluttering as he gives you those looks? When all feels right, and before you know it, you're hooked. I thought that feeling was fictional; an intensified version of what we strive for but never obtain We may feel it for a second, but it never remains A feeling we seek, then attempt to sustain. I've recently learned that this feeling exists When you smile at me, touch me, hold me, my stomach twists And those fictional butterflies come alive as you kiss my wrists. Maybe that's why I feel as if none of this is real, An amazing dream I'm in, which reality may try to steal, And wash away all those storybook feelings I feel. So I'll keep dreaming, I'd rather not wake And have these feeling ripped away; they're not free to take No, I'll keep them, thank you, whether they're real or fake.
