Poetry is the heart decoding messages for the brain from the soul through layer upon layer of flesh, blood and fear.

I didn't even see it coming

the sweet phrases,

the stupid jokes,

I just thought it was friendliness,

mindless flirting even.

But then we played a game,

Truth or Dare

Then the kiss came,

and until then

I hadn't noticed how I felt

That simple action caught me,

I was on cloud-nine,

yet falling into space

all at the same time.
