Untouchable (Other) by rahson_s
I am in love with my
best friend's daughter,
her unseen beauty, an age so young,
I must wait till she fills out,
she's almost eighteen,
we've been friends
since her birth, the best man
to her father, the god father
to her brother and sister,
she's so adorable, so smart
for her time here, special in
all forms of being different,
I'd give it all to be where
she lay her head, to cuddle,
to spoon with this woman on
the verge of entering college,
the tainted times ahead of her,
at times I talk to her on the
phone to a very late hour,
if only her father knew,
the dangerous steps taken
to following my heart, the love letters,
the kisses behind the backs of all
those we love, the dinner engagements,
the sneaking off to make out
in her bedroom, the guiltiness,
the remorse, the wanting,
the needing, only if I could,
only if she would, the many questions,
the plan to run away,
the reality of such a foolish thought,
the hunger of wanting to be inside her,
to be her first, to be killed by her father,
his hands squeezing the life out of me,
a death worth fighting for,
a woman worth dying for,
she remains untouchable
