You sat down; your leg brushed against mine.
It stayed there and I stopped breathing.
You grew stiff, and I knew you were thinking the same thing.
Your skin was cool,
from being outside with your cigarette.
The back of my neck tingled and grew hot.
I was afraid you could hear my heart.
Was it yours being so loud?
You jumped up suddenly.
“I’m thirsty.
Want a soda? ”
“Sure… Thanks…”
You can’t stand to be that close to me.
But not because you can’t stand me.
