Rapture

• Artist: Mysticwolf11
• Description: The short story is that I like a boy. The long version is that i've had a crush on the same beautiful person since the 7th grade, and only now that we're Seniors in high school has he taken any amount of interest in me, but While I would do anything to feel someone's warm embrace during these difficult holiday times, I'm disheartened by the fact that, as usual, he has a relationship with someone else.
  
  This is a short poem about it.

He enraptures me.

Our eyes rarely meet

but in every passing glance,
every smile exchange,

my heart is a cliche of pounding drums and butterflies
fluttering until they want to leave my throat:

I swallow them back.

He is taken.
He is always taken.

And I am not a thief.

4/5

It shows lots of emotion, which makes a great poem ;D

I always promote using poetry as a way to express yourself, but it wouldn't hurt to make it a little bit less... cliched... and... boring to read... 5/5 for the effort though biggrin
