"I'm falling in
love with you,"
he says,
as if I should be grateful
and happily accept
his words
spoken
gently in my ear.
as if I should be glad
he finds me to be wonderful,
gingerly
holding my body
close to his in
an awkward embrace.
his eyes gaze me remarkably
as if
I shall take every emotion
he decides to bestow upon
me,
asking nothing in return
but taking
everything.
