Butterflies Passed

getting over that crush

 

sometimes she smiles

and i feel the butterflies bloom

taking flight inside my body

wings tickling my hands and feet

fluttering against eyelashes and reddening cheeks

 

and when the buzz has passed

it's time to realize

it's only a passing smile for friends

there's nothing more, no secret message

in her smooth rise if lips

for me, for us, for the chance of we
