My First Crush Poem by Sylvia Chidi

My First Crush
Her smile
Alone captivated me as a prisoner
In an island
Isolated by my inner walls
Her words echoed
And made me quiver
With a rapid velocity of joy

The innocence of my first crush
A feeling of completeness
We spend our lives
Searching for

A sigh of contention
Moments to look forward to
Thinking of ways to make her laugh
My Uranus
My Shining star
My very first crush
