Peach kisses
Over button-down shirts —
Why did you run away
From her?
When things got raw,
You recognised the long straw —
Did you scare yourself,
Away?
Again?
How long will you
Deny yourself love,
Because you fucked it up
Once?
Because it’s hard, unapologetically,
intense?
Peach kisses,
Over button-down shirts —
You don’t have to run
Away
From her.
