Mirroring You

by Anastasia Shows

I sat beside you...
because we are friends.
because i feel comfortable around you
because i think you're cute.
because...I have a bit of a crush on you.

I read in one of those dumb girly mags
that
when you like someone you mirror
their body language.
They say it comes naturally...
but i decided to do it on purpose.

when you crossed your legs,
i crossed my legs.
when you sprawled out,
i sprawled out.
when you sat like an indian,
so did i...
and
on
and
on.

You seemed to be hanging
on the speaker's every word.
So i was startled, when
you
tapped my shoulder
and asked
"Are you copying me?"

Author's Note: I was so embarrassed. It's okay though...we eventually ended up together...
