'I can't right now.'

By littleone23

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

"I can't right now." What dost thou mean You find that I like you And your reply is "I can't right now."?! Your words And actions Spin through my mind That look on your face When you sat back with her And looked into my eyes What did you mean? Was that pity? Remorse? Mutual feelings? I cannot see Through this cloud of shame that has been placed between us All too strange Confusion streams through my veins Fluttering trips in my heart Shall I know at lunch? Or will I wait forever? All I know is "I can't right now." Written February 27th, 2002 © on Feb 28 2002 11:47 AM PST, Bridget   0 • 1
