I too, am a girl

I’m in love with a girl I saw, nameless.
I wish I could tell the world I love a girl,
Tell her…

Baby bird, you look so sweet, so shy,
Look at me…
I want to see your beautiful face,
Your smile, your lips, that pink, small shy mouth.
I want to hear your voice, the smooth sharp words,
The tones, like waves,
And melt within those thoughts
Expressed.

Kitten, I’m in love with you,
Don’t you see? Don’t you feel?
Smile for me, laugh with me,
Tell me all about those boys you love
Have loved, would love
The ones that you actually wanted
The ones that only had the flowers
The ones who treated you bad
Tell me about the one time you kissed your girlfriends.
You still don’t know you liked it.

Make me doubt darling,
Make me hope.
Let me see those shy shinning eyes rise,
So innocent, so alive,
Let me touch that long thick copper hair,
Let me hear someday your breath rise against my mouth.
Let me show you,
Let me love you.

My beautiful Angel
Close your eyes, trust me.
Don’t you see I need you?
I love you so…

And in my mind only,
I hold her in my arms.
Because I too am a girl.
