You stood in my room
Once
In front of the mirror
on my closet door
I watched you
From a distance
Regarded your face
In the reflection
Searching for…
Approval?
Not arrogant
But modest
Honest
I wanted to walk inside
Take off your coat
And push you
Onto my bed
I wanted to hold
My nose to yours
And discover
The feel of you
Beneath me
I wanted to
But I couldn’t.
