Speaking up and being honest-02
Tatiana Magghio
/"I don’t care if you don’t believe me. What I feel for you is like nothing I’ve ever felt before. When you kiss me, and I feel you close, my heart beats so fast my breath catches./" I reach over, grab one of his hands and place it on my chest. /"Do you feel that? That’s my heart wanting to burst out of my chest just having you in front of me. Sad? Pathetic? I don’t give a shit. I’m sick of not throwing myself, of not following what my heart wants, of being just another one of the bunch./" I remove the hand covering his. I can’t help but look at him, distressed and anxious. /"Do what you want with that confession. I’m not going anywhere... not unless you want me to./"
We stand silently in the same posture: with his hand on my chest and his eyes on me, though he can’t see me.
