    Freezer Burn
    So yesterday

    In the freezer

    The oversized

    Walk-in

    Automatic locking

    Extremely private

    Freezer.

    I'm sorry.

    I don't really know

    how that all happened so

    freaking fast.

    Maybe it was the cold screwing up

    Our brains.

    Or maybe it was me

    Flirting with you.

    But when you

    Got so

    so

    close,

    and stayed there

    looking straight at me...

    I was...stuck.

    I couldn't move,

    Or breathe

    Or think at all.

    And then

    You leaned in

    Closer.

    And I...

    Panicked.

    I couldn't kiss you.

    I don't know why.

    Even though I wanted to,

    At least I think I wanted to,

    I couldn't stand there

    With you staring into my eyes,

    And kiss you.

    I hope you don't...hate me now...

    I love the obvious hesitance shown it's very realistic. You seem to write out your feelings very well.

    Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

    Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
