Poem about my crush

[americanoomad]

A shock of black sky trapped in your riptide,
calling my lonely heart out to sea.

I find it striking how you steer this ship,
your smile so disarming, yet deadly.

All I seem to do is deceive you,
my posture rigid as a bold lie,
uttering words that only touch a fraction
of what you mean to me.

Perhaps a future that never took shape
weighs heavier than the past.

So I wade through the cool waves,
for the only way out is through.

I'd rather be drowning with you
than float adrift on my own.

I've written a sort of poem regarding my friend/crush too some while back...

A lamb lost in the forest
Found by a ragged farmer
Was brought into a herd
Where all the other sheep resided

This one sheep looked strange
It stood alone on the side
Watching as the other sheep
Played and together passed by

The lamb approached the sheep
Sitting next to it on the grass
The sheep's eyes widened
At the strange little lamb



Time passed and soon
Best friends they became
They skipped and played in the fields
As the days drifted away

What the little lamb didn't know
Was that its friend was a beast
A wolf with sharp claws and teeth
Wearing a sheep as its fleece

All it wanted was to belong
So it tore off a sheep's skin
And wore it as its own
Hiding its true nature behind soft wool

The wolf was afraid
That its true nature would show
And that the lamb it adored
would soon come to know



Desperate and scared
The monster into the river went
It never came back up
And left the lamb alone in their den


The lamb never realized
what its friend was all along
It just thought its sheep was lost
And waited for it to come home.
