Love From Afar

By Aliyah Miramontes

Pools of honey staring at me

White pearls shining brightly

Laughter that has me melting

A voice who brings me ecstasy

My eyes on you 

Your eyes on me

A fire ignites inside of my body

Our conversations sound silly

but they mean everything to me

Warmth of your body right

beside mine

Yet a cold breeze brings a 

shiver up my spine

A wave in the hall

A smile that will lead to my

downfall 

Eyes connecting even though

it’s wrong

My feelings strong 

Your eyes burn my skin like 

a sin
