Clumsy in life
And in love
Dropping spoons, and F-bombs, and hearts
Tripping over sidewalk chalk and flattery
I’ve never once caught a frisbee
I caught feelings, but only for a second
Graceless
Awkward
Unwieldly
Attempts to tiptoe delicately
Hold love’s pinky just between mine
Kiss with mouths perky
A bolt of electricity
Unshelled from within
A firm stomp
A tight grip
Smooch sloppy
I never intended to crash into you
Like a chariot on stilts
I bashed my funny bone into the wall
It was… hilarious
Comedy and tragedy
They both live here
In a home
We can’t build
Because I’m sure
To knock over
The doorframe
