Mind Blindness

We sit in an awkward silence.
I wish I knew what you were
feeling. I don't want to act on
a false pretense. I want to show
you my affection, but I don't know
what you're thinking.

Could you be wondering what I
want from you? Do you feel anything
for me? I don't want to scare you.
Clarity is what I need. I try to understand.
Your expressions and body language are
hard to read.

I want to kiss you. I want give you
my love. I'm afraid to reach for you.
I don't dare make a move. I don't want
to force myself on you.
