Keep This To Yourself Poem by Diego Adrian Manriquez

Keep This To Yourself



She tightly pressed her body against mine,
She looked up to smile with her hand on my chest,
She said don't say another word come to my bed and rest your head,
The she began to start to make a move before I could even speak,
She shoved her tongue down my throat,
Ran her fingers through my hair,
And held me as I shivered at night when I couldn't fall asleep,
She kept on getting closer and closer,
Forcing me to open up but it was only part of the plan,
Friday nights laying half naked on top of her bed,
While I let my hands do the rest,
With our lips tightly pressed together there was not was not much we could say,
It seemed all hope was lost the day she turned to me,
I stood there waiting for her to say something,
but she turned away instead,
I don't know why,
And I don't know how,
I forced myself to believe she was the one,
I was tired of.....
Being alone
Being afraid
Being quiet
Being no one
I needed to find comfort while I was here,
But what I had been looking for was right under my nose,
And what I wanted the most and threw away,
And now every night before I sleep,
Those haunting words always come to me,
But they are sound different every time.
