• Waxing Poetical

  I decided to write a poem. 
  It has no relevance to my current life,  but I still believe it's identifiable. Just a slice of life kinda thing.  I'm especially proud that I kept it unisex. 
  I think it's worthwhile.

  Crush
  
  The heart’s hurried, hissing
  Its chambers shuddering together
  Stomach’s steaming, squirming
  yet light as a feather
  
  A sight – a sight
  if only a sight
  the concoction of fright
  and delight
  mixed together just right
  shaken oh so slight
  when the Object comes into light

  luminescent, ethereal
  a reaction forceful and bright

   

  Sucking warmth from the hands
  Stealing breath from the lungs

  Starting sweat down the brow

  Tying up tongues
  
  Every action now needs qualification
  Every daydream tainted with temptation
  The development and dreading of the declaration

  The ongoing quest for validation

  Digesting every move to taste for verification

  A glimmer, a hint, a final motivation

  The last signal to leave the station-

   

  -And now, the Object approaching

  But for what destination?
  Have the subtle changes and hints
  stirred the Object's own proclamation?
  Is it the end of frustration?
  No more infatuation traced with asphyxiation,
  But a fantastic future filled with elation.
  Is this salvation?
  Oh, the sensation.
  Heart jolts, flutters, then full force palpitation

  Face flushing
  Blood rushing
  Mind approaching suffocation
  
  

  -Just a few steps now

  Legs stand to position
  The Object of affection

  The greatest ambition

  Will all the dreams now come to fruition?
  
  The Object almost here-
  Prepared now; braced, and blushing
  -The Object walks past and to another.
  Crushing.

  Here's some visual stimuli for the non-literate, 
  a picture of me and dad from this weekend.
