I Need a Girlfriend
My True Emotions in Written Words - Poetry
“I need a girlfriend.”
A frown tugs on my lips as my eyes can over the text.
I don’t know what to do next.
I wish I could be the one to make you smile,
Even if it was just for a while.
I was stupid to let my heart do this,
But my heart likes to play hit and miss.
“I’m sorry.”
My fingers beg to write a different message but I can’t afford it,
And it feels like my heart drops into a bottomless pit.
I don’t want awkward air between us,
So I don’t allow us to discuss.
I just want you happy,
Even if I’m crappy.
“Me too.”
I’m asked why I don’t tell you,
And I want to,
But I can’t.
With you as a best friend, I can’t.
So I’ll bask in this moment,
Even if I become broken.

Midnight
60 seconds… 59 seconds… Time was slipping through his fingers, though he clawed at the falling grains of sand, he could not stop the hourglass from flowing. Around him, the silence was deafening. He had taken over every screen in the command centre, putting the terrible seconds before the terrified eyes of his friends and comrades.
