Could It Be
by Markesia Bailey
Heart tightening,
palm sweating,
am I dying?
No, I’m thinking of losing you,
your laughter,
your big brown eyes,
your big ass smile,
your warm touch.
I have to admit
you did it.
You broke down the many walls
I built,
you got me to feel.
But how do I know it’s real?
Could it be
the off the wall comments
or the images of you and me?
Could it be
the drunken conversations
or the way you look at me?
Could it be
the smile you bring on my face
or the memories?
Could it be
that we didn’t expect this
Or the fact that it feel so unrealistic?
Could it be that I possibly love you
and wish that you love me too?
