Closed off and private
I can't let you in again
Or you might hurt me again
I know you don't mean to
But you do
Like a mother hen guarding her eggs
I'll protect my emotions and thoughts
Protect them from your prying eyes
And sweet words
I know how addictive your poison is
How sweet your venom is
Things I can't have being so damn attractive
I don't want it
At least
I think I don't want it
Your soft words like therapy
Your kind thoughts like a good song
Your sweet gestures like the love I never had
You, someone I could never get over
Someone I could never love
Someone I could never hate
Someone I could never forget
Inconsistency is key
And boundaries are a must
Sometimes I wonder what it's like to not know you
Then I realize I don't want to know
I guess I like you just enough
That I can't make up my mind
About what a healthy dose of you looks like
