I have decided....ANGSTY 'WHY I CAN'T HAVE YOU AND THE UNIVERSE IS PLAYING GAMES WITH ME' RIRI WILLIAMS POEM FIC IT IS (mostly because MCU Riri and I are the same age and I don't want to project my current/personal issues onto Izogie and y'all - the readers)
A/N: Alright, y'all, the long-awaited poem is HERE. It took a while because I had finals and needed to prepare for move-out, but I did it!
CW: Reader was written in mind as a Black woman, HOWEVER, given that I didn't mention any pronouns or genitals, this is GENDER NEUTRAL <3
Venus, Have Mercy On Me
Riri Williams x Black!Reader

I like you
I like you a lot.
Whenever I look at you
My world starts to spin
My heart drops into my stomach like a slice of pie.
Your presence gently invades my surroundings, filling up my head with thoughts of you and I.
Your beautiful grin makes my heart stop beating
Again and again.
Your captivating brown eyes pull me in
Making me feel like we're the only ones in the room.
Everytime I hear that beautiful voice of yours
My stomach fills with crickets
The rubbing of their legs making my stomach cramp and churn with anxiety and nerves.
Your smooth skin reflects off the sun like a mirror
Smelling like Shea butter and freshly printed paper.
Your hair is braided into neat cornrows that fall down your back
They sway back and forth when you walk
Reminding me of silk curtains on a canopy bed.
When you walk out the room I grow sad
I'd do almost anything to bask in your reverence for a little bit longer.
At night I pray
I pray to the Roman goddess of love to give me guidance and the courage to talk to you.
I say:
"Venus, have mercy on me"
The end! The title was inspired by Venus Versus Mars by Dreamer Isioma, I recommend their music π©πΎβπ³π. But anyway, I hoped y'all liked it! Have a good evening <3
P.S. can someone please tell me how to center paragraphs on this damn appπ this format is actually pissing me off so bad π§πΎββοΈ
