the trail of
your compliments
lead to
this hide
out. each
step
towards it makes me
more
nervous.
yet still,
there's a
flutter in my
tummy and a smile on
my face.
the thrill
of it all,
the secrets
we make.
words we'll
never tell
and stories
that can remain
just ours.
i grip your
hand tightly
as
we walk
inside. a roof,
four walls and
the two of us.
soon you'll start
saying dreamy
things.
i'll nod
along like
i always do.
the sky
is green
if
you say so. i guess
you've got me good.
