I don’t mean to be rude
Andrea
I just…
I was breastfed a little too long.
I was fixated.
I was obsessed.
I was lost in a particular craving
that stays with me
to this day.

I don’t mean for my attention to wander
for my gaze to linger
for my brow to moisturize
when I look at you
Or… parts of you.
I swear
I will strive
to look in your eyes
someday soon.
