flickering heartA Poem by Mari-Sweetmy eyes turn green when he speaks to other people while shutting me out at the same time. my eyes fill with hearts when i look at him. each glance is the same as the first. what can i say? he shimmers like the island waters! sometimes i don’t wanna see him at all. twice a week, i wait for him to pull up on the 507 just so i can admire his glowing face. i think about the times when he was unfriendly and my fist balls up. i remember the times he wouldn’t answer me when i would say “hello” or “have a nice day,” but then speak to other people afterwards. how could he?!! even now he doesn’t seem to like saying “you’re welcome” when i thank him for the ride. the hurtful memories turn me into a boiling tea kettle and i wish our lips could meet. i just wanna rob him of the kiss we’ll never share. what can i say? he’s such a sparkling star! he was never cool with me to begin with, so why should i care if he knows i’m watching him? © 2011 Mari-SweetAuthor's Note
