Starstruck

 Written May 31, 2025


Why,  hello,  how are you?
Are you just passing thru
Wandering in
Right this way
Step right up....
Won't you?

Take a seat
Take your time
Get (un)settled
Unconfine
Yourself fully
Unwind
Leave behind
on my skin
The hot breath of your day

Exhale, breathe
Find your way here
Safe with me.
Never fear

Intertwining legs
Under covers
At dusk. Under the
Peeking out stars
Found us.
Not yet
Lovers. But yet
Something.
More.
Tech yanked us together.
Clicking quickly.
Completely
Magnetic.

Fireflies glowing
Anew
Watery eyes shyly
showing
The words I dare not,
Cannot say
Yet
But I feel it
That buzz, warming,
Knowing
Your candle burns there
Lighting
Darkened paths
From afar.

Feeling out loud
I'm not cocky,
Nor proud
Pouring, bleeding
All of me
Onto your page.
Cradle,  cuddle
My heart closer
Befuddled mind
Giggles softly
May I nuzzle
That bristle of chin
At this stage?

Cuz these soft fuzzy socks
That I wear, I'm still cold
Still afraid.
Not nearly enough
To feel warm, to withstand,
To be brave.
Fresh written feels,
now the words-- 
loyal slaves.



If I blink,  breathe, or move
Think or stir, will I
Wake from this dream,
Was it real,  surely feels like it,
Or blur, just the whirring of
Fan, fanning heart into
Stirring my soul up again.
Damn,  that'd be just a
Damn crying shame.

It's all you,  it's your move.
You got game?
