Fantasia

I can picture you there, 
in the seat next to me. 

I can imagine my tongue-tied breath 

catching. 

I can see you being very polite. 

I imagine my being 
very much in love 

with you, 

I picture us 
lying in crumpled sheets, 

I can’t see you 

loving me.

The way you set up the plot of your verse, is truly not a style I have seen before. It's very sensitive to the condition of relationship, contact and anxiety.

I tried to rite it as *I* wanted it read. To have the reader pause and stress those words I feel are most important. Don't know if I succeeded, but then again. It was fun to write.
