Fingers Intertwined

"The gift I have for you cannot be taken,
Only given."


And you stopped walking and beckoned me closer;
Your lips were then on mine,
"Ugh, chewing gum"
You said and I just rolled my eyes to the skies and smiled,
Walking faster to the place where we would meet with my friends.

The day was 3 months in the making,
3 months since we last exchanged lips,
[Tongues].

I forgot how much I missed you;
How much I missed all of this.

Cut to Pizza Hut,
You by my side,
Under the table you held my hand;
Fingers intertwined.

And you spoke so nicely to me,
Said how you missed my face,
My body,
My 'stupidity'
I told you you loved it all,
And you didn't deny.

Then, out of the blue at the table,
[I had retreated into my thoughts,
A sadness crossed my face]
You looked into my eyes,
"Te Amo"
I just looked at you in shock,
"Do you have any idea what that means?"
You asked
"Yes" I sighed.
"Well then" you replied and smiled.

I have fallen prey to your piercing dark eyes,
Seven months until we can fully commit;
Will what we have stand the test of time?

"Te Amo" - "I Love You"

And the two of us are back to where we never started; casual.
But I care too much to let him go

(Update: I haven't heard from him since that day. My friend told me he's moved 3 hours away.)

In a list

*sigh* you still have me

    I loved the ending it was very powerful and tied the poem up perfectly. I also loved all the familiar referances to places like 'pizza hut' It made it feel so real

    Aw, this poem was such a beautiful retelling of what happened between these two people, I was really rooting for the relationship to work out. So I was kinda sad when I got to the author's notes and saw the update. Still, thank you for posting this, it made me happy to read it.

      Awh thank ya for your words.

      Yeah, it ended between us 3 months ago, but we're seeing each other casually and won't be able to be bf/gf until at least June so I hope things work out.
