Heartbeat

by Joanne Marisa Leow
awkward it was

        Yes

        as first kisses

        usually are.

Except this

          was a

First

        and

                Last

Truthfully

     It should be.


No time to achieve

        familiarity

No right to gain

        ease


Your heartbeat remains

        Only

              in my ears
