The Ripple Effect
Your deliberate wink
said much
Cheeks a rosy pink
Wish I could touch
Girl, my heart stopped
for two minutes
Then skipped, hopped
causing panic
Dare me
to say what remains
Honesty
is my ball and chains
You said you’re shy
I wonder
if the twinkle in your eye
is a warm shoulder
Facial expressions
and body language
are the clear indications
held hostage.
