The Better Mirror (short Piece) by OluwabuqqyYOLO(m): 9:40pm On Jan 07, 2017 |
There's this woman I see around Allen's street. I'm in love with her. She has this small stature, as a lithe queen of the Arabian gulfs. Her skin is rosy in color, almost like saffron water. I can't bear to see an ant walk her skin, or the waters cascade down her body. I envy the clothes she put on at night - that light one that gives her the joy to sleep; that pinafore that declares her firm breasts and lovely buttocks. She's a woman after my heart. My feelings for her -I know because I've tried-pollinate flowers. This woman catches my eye better than the mirror. I don't want to tell her though. I'm genuinely scared of letting her know how I feel. She has no lover, I fear she's been broken a lot of times. I won't ever treat her badly, for she's the diamond that beautifies my quiet world. The way I feel about her is weird but strangely soothing. When I tell her, I hope she smiles and let me chew her lips and handle her curves. But a fear tugs at the back of my mind. I shy away from the truth, from her. I fear to commit myself to her. I fear that my love for her might consume her slowly, like a fire with an emerald glow. But that's greatly beside the point. Seriously, I don't think I can sit there with her and have a commitment, not because I don't wish to. I wish to but I hope you know that the world revolves and, as so, we are unconsciously spinned with it. I fear that my feelings for her might change. ©Oladokun Olubukola 2 Likes |
