cherry blossoms
by Nayla Sharma
what’s your favorite
?
purple. you
?
chocolate. wby
?
cherry blossoms
?
me too.
do you wonder
what else we shared?
if we’d both been secure
if we were older
if you were less reckless
and i was more
maybe we could’ve held
hands and listened
to golden hour
maybe we could’ve sat at a
window and watched
cherry blossoms
are we the same
?
could i be you
?
could i do what
you did to me
?
maybe.
