I remember
A long time
Ago…
I had written
Down that
I had
Seven true loves…
I was so
Naïve.
There are more
Than I can count.
I can remember
When I was
Two years old
I saw her…
Black hair
Blue eyes
She looked
Like wonder woman
In a nurse's outfit
Her presence
Never failed
To make me feel
Like my heart
Was going to burst.
She was the reason
Why
I was brave
When I cried
Every week
Twice a week
For my allergy shots…
I would do anything
For her praise
Her smile…
I stopped crying
When she poked
Me…
Because it made
Her proud of me…
I can still
Remember seeing him
For the first time
On the playground
Chris Drummond
His crutches
Were cool.
He had such
Charisma…
He openly
Kissed the girls
And I was
One of them.
First grade
Jim Asher and Amy
We kissed
In the coat closet
Of his house
My first true
Bisexual memory
Fondly,
Every time
I see Bewitched
I see his name
In the credits
And smile..
You see
Each encounter
Where my heart
Leaps
Is recorded here
And the saying
Is true
My loves
My beloveds
I will never
Forget
How you made
Me feel.
