Curious


/We used to get up before the sunrise
you to jog
and me running by your side..
We were just friends,so I pretended not to mind..
you telling me about some other guy../

/all the while I'd hope and pray
that on one fine day
you would realize how I felt about you.
We were friends and sometimes my possesiveness
with you made you furious..
shame ,you couldn't see that I was curious../

/Curious about you
Curious about what it would be like
to make love to you..
Curious about all aspects of you./

/I used to walk you to his place
listen to you tell me about your dates
Wishing all along that I could participate...
Cursing myself because of how I would procrastinate../

When I had the chance to tell you how I felt about you
I held back,
so content to play it cool..
I was a fool...
and knowing that makes me furious..
That I never let you know that I was
curious../

/Curious about
you
Curious about
making love to you..
Curious about all aspects
of you.../
