The Beat

Rated: E · Poetry · None · #1776753

The experience of knocking on a girls door.

Thump Thump Thump...
arriving, a knock
Thump Thump Thump...
Thump Thump Thump...

Thud...Thud...Thud...
the wait, what now?
Thud...Thud...Thud...
Thud...Thud...Thud...
a response
Thump-thump, Thump-thump, Thump-thump
