Mixed Signals Poem by Simon Odhiambo

We are all taken, you and I
They were all broken, your heart and mine
They are always meeting, your eyes and mine
Are this signs deceiving, we still doubt

Not normally high, this heart-beat of yours
Not usually sweaty, these palms of mine
Not naturally shy, yet u looked down
Will they meet again, your eyes and mine

I shake myself up...

Am taken, you are taken too
I was scared when you stared
My heart-rate, rising in vain
Mixed signals I think...

We remain taken and that's a fact!
