Catch and Cradle

by Katia Rose

I want her to keep looking at me like that. I want her to keep looking at me for so long one of us has to do something about it.

she’s everything. I need her.

Whatever that kiss was, it was not a mistake. I will never be able to call something so incredible a mistake.

I didn’t just want to kiss her. I wanted to be with her.

I’ve always noticed her. I’ve always felt her like a change in seasons,

I’ve never felt so wanted in so many ways.

I’m aching for her.

I could spend all night getting to know her body.

I don’t need words. I just need this. I just need her.

I’ve never loved out loud.

I’ve been silent when I should have been loud.
