Dare You

You sitting over there stop looking at me like that

If you like what you see, take a picture

Look at it every time your eyes crave for beauty

With no guts to make a move

You sure stare shamelessly

We've known each other for awhile

Never talked even once

I dare you to take one step

The rest are mine to take

Like a bride walks to her groom

You've warmed the chair for too long

Stretch your legs

The window is next to me

Come get some fresh air

And maybe borrow a book from me

Our fingers might brush against each other

Don't wash your hand

Let the feeling sink in

You might hold my hand next time

Am I getting ahead of myself?

I surely will remember my high school days through poems I wrote. I was such a bored person and whatever happened gave me a poem inspiration.
