Such a Stupid Boy

Shut up boy.
I didn't expect to see you here,
Hidden still amongst the crowd.
We stop and we pivot,
And we talk.

Be quiet boy,
I didn't know you wanted
Something more from me,
"Are you going to class?",
"No I am just walking in this direction for no reason".

Shut up boy,
I don't care to hear your sarcasm,
Though I love it.

And I also love
The way my body moves towards yours
Without my even trying.

Shut up and don't punch me boy,
Because you are stronger than you think,
And you may bruise my tender skin.

You are such a stupid boy:
"I like your hair", I say,
"Thanks", you say.
And you smile
And then we walk away.

You are such a stupid boy,
And its so stupid that I love you.
