mostly gay poems

i think it’ll mostly be poetry for the girl i’m madly in love with but who’s to say

[lesbianlovepoet]

even if...

even if we don’t talk.

even if i only see you for a second.

even if you don’t notice me as i walk by

or i forget to smile and wave.

even if you wore sweatpants. (although i know you never would)

even if you looked away when you saw me.

even if anything

i would still love seeing you

and i would still be happy to know you were there.

your hair

I loved you with your short, curly hair

and I loved you when you let it grow out.

I think you are adorable when you straighten it

and adorable when you put it up

and when you leave it be

you are still adorable.

I think that maybe

I just like you and your face.

A-PART

you are a part of me

even if

i am not a part of you

and i have prepared myself

for the very real possibility

that i never will be.

lost touches

i think of your hands

or of hugging you

and it makes me feel warm

the idea makes me feel safe

just the thought makes me grin.

i think of you touching my shoulder

a moment i will never forget

that left me speechless

and smiling

and the memory of it makes me happy.

but then i think of all the times

that we will never have

all of the things we will never do

all of the touches that are intangible

the ones that will simply never happen

and i realize that the small things

and the ideas in my mind

are all that we will ever really have

so i remember them and i write them down

so that i don’t lose them

into the same abyss

that you will soon disappear into.
