he pushed my shoulder as he winked and smiled
with flirtations of a jungle boy: wild.
out from the canopy, into the sun
had no idea he would be my first one
back then, in the closet, he chose to stay
i burned calendars to stop counting days.
although three times he asked for my embrace
i denied chances; left without a trace
for five months i longed, for five months i missed
the guy i didn’t want to only kiss;
someday time’s chainsaws will cut truth’s trees
and he will give more than secretive leaves
Author notes
this haunts me every day of my life.

All I can say is 'ahhhh' how youth can take us down paths we least expect, but the emotions are real. It doesn't mean much other than the world is opening up and you are discovering life on both sides of a coin. Well done. Love, C
