In Trouble for Sarah |
Nicholas Grooms
When I first saw you
I mentally put a piece of chalk
into my own shaky hand
and started writing
That beauty
That beauty
That beauty
That beauty
That beauty
over and over and over
on the walls of my brain
like it was after school detention
—That’s how much trouble I knew I was in
