"She'll turn their heads, but not their hearts" - Lang Leav


Detach myself from the world whenever

My hands get clammy, I strain to sit still

This has nothing to do with the weather

More from the fact that you make me feel ill

Swallowing fruition turned to ashes

Coughing profusely, although I was not sick

All the while, always batting my lashes

Seeing you washed over me like the waves, quick

Stomach-churning was my yearning to go

Does this sound light even though it’s painful?

It was my fault as I was dying to know

Why what we did yesteryear was sinful

How it managed to cause a commotion 

When I felt a myriad of emotions?


The author's comments:

I remembered all the embarrassing moments that happened to me in school as I was writing this, thinking my peers would make fun of me for a few varying conditions I have…

Also, I was scared of what others thought of me (particularly the ones that I like…).
