I Wonder

I wonder if you think about me at all

Even if it’s just a little bit, I want to know.

Do I make you smile?

Does a small grin play across your face

When you hear my name?

I hope you think about me.

I wonder what it’d be like to hold your hand

To have your fingers intertwined with mine.

Would you hold it loosely or tightly?

Would you let me go when I pull away

Or would you tighten the small embrace

And not let me go?

I wonder what it’d be like to hug you.

Would I be able to hear your heartbeat and you mine?

Would you wrap your arms around my shoulders or my waist?

Would you hug me slightly or would you hold on as if

You wanted to remember the moment forever?

Would you reluctantly let me go?

I wonder what it would be like to do these things,

To experience your touch, burning against my skin,

Your arms around my fragile form,

And your fingers laced with mine.

But I will never truly know what it’s like

Because I’m barely brave enough to wonder.
