A two-person poem between me and a guy I like. Every first line is me, every second line is him.
(2013)
This is not about the first time we met, but about our first real conversation, in the science lab. This is what I thought he was thinking...
Tonight I thought about you The way your face would shine. You used to always tell me That you would forever be mine. But all that changed, late one nig…
