121.) My Lemon Boy and I.

Fidgeting in the classroom, 

lemon boy sits with his hands 

in the pockets of his bright colored hoodie.


His anxiety is wearing thin

and he eats another piece of gummy candy, 

trying all he can to stay calm

in the loud atmosphere. 


His converse rub 

against the patterned socks 

as his leg shakes. 


I smile when his eyes begin to soften, 

staring back into mine.


My bittersweet lemon boy,

sitting next to me.
