Nervous
By Dragonfly
Sitting on you sofa bed,
Nervous.
Chewing on the button of my
shirt.
Nervous.
Clawing at the scars on my wrist.
Nervous.
Hoping you don't notice my battle scars.
Nervous.
Hoping again
you think they are from war and not drunk gang fights.
Nervous.
Biting my lower lip.
Nervous.
Chewing my nails to the nub.
Nervous.
Hoping your mom doesn't walk in because that would be totally
embarrassing.
Nervous.
Hoping your dad thinks you are jumping
on the bed.
Nervous
Hoping I can hide in your closet if he doesn't.
Nervous.
Hearing you get ready in the bathroom.
Nervous.
Hand shaking as I begin to strip into my wife-beater.
Nervous.
Hands running repeatedly through my hair.
Nervous.
Hearing
you open the door.
Nervous.
Closing my eyes.
Nervous.
Watching you step towards me ready for the challenge.
Nervous.
Hearing you say, 'It's on'
Nervous.
Knowing you will beat me.
Nervous.
Because I love to suck.
Nervous.
I've never done
this before.
Nervous.
My family is poor.
Nervous.
I
don't own the type of stuff you do.
Nervous.
Yep your going to
beat me at a video game.
Nervous
COD at that.
Game on.

haaa.. I actually read this at first as a boy and girl, too young, getting ready to have sex for the first time... and each word of "nervous" kept getting more intense in my head, then I hit the video game part and I chuckled. Heeeee.
