Anxiety In The Flesh Poem by Katheryn Foley

I smile because I believe your worth it,
I shy away at times because I am very conscious of all my actions
I reminisce when I am alone
and in silence I watch you upon your throne.

I want us to find a deeper meaning
I need us to find a deeper feeling
That we can grow off of for a long time
I long to have you
I will wait to get you
Although it has been extremely hard not calling you mine,
I know all we need is just a little time.

I need to learn the difference between attention and affection,
And the lines are getting blurry to see,
The feelings are getting harder to reach,
The look in your eyes that you give me,
Give me a reason to believe.

That Phone call that you received,
gave me a feeling of anxiety,
That you have something with another,
That I had yet to discover,
I must hold my guard up I see,
For just a while longer indeed,
Until I know how you really feel,
And that fateful kiss one day seals the deal.
