WRITING OBSTACLE

Submitted by Lola

Create a descriptive passage or poem depicting the very first moments of a crush forming.

First Crush.

What is this emotion,

This sudden feeling of warmth?

This rush coursing through me,

Why did it appear when she passed?

Why are my cheeks burning like a stovetop,

And rosy like a ladybug’s back?

Why is my heart thumping foribly,

Like it’s trying to escape my chest to greet her?

Why do my hands feel doused,

Like I put them out the window during rainfall?

What is this unnatural timidity,

That has picked at the petals of my emotions?

I don’t know a thing about her,

But I focus my eyes on her like I want to,

She looks so remarkable, delightful, sweet...

Oh, I’ve never felt like this before!

God, my body is betraying me,

Trying to make me look moronic!

I need to stay calm-

Why can’t I stay calm?!
