there was something
sweet and nervous
like a secret
in the way
he touched my waist
there was nothing
i wanted more
than for that hand
warm and wired
to linger
and i feel like i’m about to make a fool of myself
but i forgot how to give a damn
won’t you pour yourself a drink and
forget along with me

he was cold, but warm
he was everything i didn’t want
and i found myself searching
for the light in his grin
This is gorgeous! You should consider doing NaPoWriMo this coming month 😀 They have prompts for every day on their site, but the main aim is just to write a poem every day! http://www.napowrimo.net/

Yay! I hope you decide to join! 😀 I usually just try to write a poem a day in April for myself, and if I’m feeling brave I might share one or two online 😉

Ouhhh! I hope I’ll get to read some of your poetry! 😀
I started writing a few poems in a notebook every morning since yesterday! As usual, the inspiration/motivation is at its best in the first days haha, hope it’s going to last!

You’re so right – it’s always the first few days that go so well and then by the end of the month you’re like, “WHERE IS MY INSPIRATION?!” 😉 We’ve decided to post all our poems on the blog so you’ll definitely get to read ’em! 😀
