Brown Sugar Freckles

This is a poem I wrote about a boy in my English Class

With your brown sugar freckles

And your bewitching eyes

Capturing my attention

There’s just

Something

About a boy

As sweet as you.

How you can’t help 

But be pulled in.

Intelect did not pass you by

Nor did humor

Combined they are

A force to be reckoned with.

If the sound of your voice was somehow written

It'd be written in cursive.

If your eyes were a feeling

They would be an explosion of warmth that is so beautifully overwhelming, 

It can't be confined or defined in one word.

When I see your smile, 

My stomach fills not only with butterflies,

But with a seven-acre garden of sunflowers and roses.

I know I'm only another girl to you,

And you used to be just another boy to me,

But I wish I could tell you now that you're

That

Boy to me.

[Jibey]

There is an unaffected charm about this writing, a heartfelt and genuine expression of longing and affection for that 'sweet boy'

[Alexandra]

Yes, Yes, there is...

[John the Baptist]

Very descriptive work here that captures the essence of young love, I hope it is requited. If not, he's not Adam; there are others.

No it is not, but as an 8th grader, I will be just fine.
