Simply Complicated

Two hearts collided

Their attention undivided

They say that if you love something set it free

But is this really love inside of me?

As time went on,

Feelings got stronger

And I thought to myself,

We can't hold it in any longer.

You wanted me

And I wanted you

You wanted an us

But I wanted a me

Feelings so close to love,

I had to set you free.

Yet you came back,

So it must have been real.

But trusting someone is where I always fail

Fear of heartbreak, fear of love

Fear of abandonment, fear of it all

When will I ever let it go?

Too much of a burden,

those labels and titles.

"I'd prefer to be friends" is what I always say

Afraid to let love in and whisk me away

To a place of no worries, fears or regrets

So I guess the poem is over, I haven't found that place yet.
