Purity

****

I saw a boy who
looked like a man
but was as mature as a
teenager in health class
and i loved him for it

this boy wore pants
with a hole in the
back. he didn't care
that i thought he was
dirty but charming
i'd hug him for days
we don't need to shower.

***

you stood there naked
it wasn't uncomfortable
i looked at your body and loved it without a flinch

****

the simplicity of fucking in
a laundry room at a friends house
overwhelms the capacity to think
that sex is a big deal

****

if a tear shed from my glassy blue eye
and smeared my mascara
If I stained your shirt with
salt water tears
would you cry too?
