you grabbed my hand and held it
but we were on a rollercoaster
so I don’t know if it counts
our shoulders were pressed together
neither of us moved away
but does it just mean we’re comfortable?
or is it something more?
you swing your arm around my shoulders
pull me to your side while we walk
just briefly
you ran your hands up and down my arms
to warm me up
you told me, “it’s people like you who are
making me soft.”
“how?” I asked.
“because you actually mean something. Curse you
for mattering.”
how many people did you say that to?
I just don’t want to
jump in before feelings are
reciprocated
in the most colloquial of terms
I’m super “into” you
maybe I’m just scared
and that’s why I won’t act
either way,
you’re important
we’re important
and I’m not sure
if we’re there yet.
It's been almost a month! Hope y'all enjoy.

Thanks! I can't take credit
Thanks! I can't take credit for "curse you for mattering" though. Haha. That was an actual conversation.

I knew it!
I thought it might have been from a conversation....it was far too real :)

Wow!
Very beautiful Erin! This is definitely relative to most of us at one time. You capture the unsure but yet sure feeling so well. It brings back memories for me :) Love the imagery too! Great job! Blessings to you!

Erin Erin Erin I love love
Erin Erin Erin I love love love this. It's one of your best. It's beautiful in its simplicity, just the utter realness of it all. It's so lovely, and relatable for a lot of people, I'm sure, and the way you strung everything together was so concise, it was practically rhythmic. One of my favorites of yours!
