I Won't Write About It

by Nicole M. - Gemini

Such a precious time
  so fragile
and exhilerating

It's fresh
  still covered in the gentle dew
The sweetest water
   my lips have ever tasted

But I can't write about it
   Dare I
To make a conscious effort
    to constrict it
I shouldn't notice it
   It'd much rather
Creep up
    and take my insides by surprise

But here I am
   looking at it
from the corners of my eyes
    I didn't mean to
But it kept whispering
   blowing sweet thoughts my way

I will not write about it
    and through my jinx on it
Create large
     motions
Scaring it away

I will not write about it.

Oh 
Wait

Crap
