Infatuation

when you look at me like you do, my heart flips like a wild acrobat.

The girl on the swing Long, blonde hair bright as the sun I knew her well. Once.

Eyes as cold as ice And a frozen heart to match? I love a challenge!

Just Us. You & me In our castle built for two— Don’t bring your girlfriend.

Leaves jumping from trees Landing safely in crisp piles in their own backyards
