Standing behind your chair, leaning forward to
show you something on the computer. My hand
hovered over yours, both of us still for a minute,
you dropped the mouse and sort of shoved it over to
me, I was
flustered and it took me a minute before I
could get the arrow to point where I wanted it.
And we were walking down the street, close enough
to hear each other, extra arms between solid
bodies, I kept smoking to keep my hands busy
with some sort of warmth. We were on the couch
and I was hugging Snack'ems for
something soft, you wanted to show me how to make his
spine stand up and your accidental fingers tingled and
I didn't move that hand for a while after you'd taken
yours back.
And then you dripped something on your chin, I
wanted to reach across the table and brush off the
crumbs, just casually tips of fingers touch the
bristles and that was all, I didn't need to kiss
you yet but to feel your chin would've been nice.
