Twitter dms to texts,Texts to video calls,Video calls to The very first date;You said you liked walks at night, coffee and marine drive;This is our first date-2 am – Marine drive, coffee – you and me;You hold me with your eyes,Just your eyes,I feel lovedLoved like no otherHas ever loved me before;You smile,The one that melts meLike an ice creamOn a hot summer afternoon;We hold hands,My heart pounds so loudI can almost hear it over the waves;The butterflies in my stomachAre now fluttering their way Up towards my heart;My heart suddenly feels full,I smile back;And at this very moment,Life feels alot more easy,Calm and uncomplicated.
This poem is among the 13 shortlisted poems under the Rhyme and Reason contest by Rainbow Literature Festival and Gaylaxy,and supported by The Qknit,that was held in May.
