A Flimsy Little Thing
╚══════ ≪ °❈° ≫ ══════╝
I learned from my past.
I learned from my worst.
I force myself to look away
As I tell myself, "Don't."
"You're done with love."
"You're through all this."
Nothing seems to register
As I steal another glance at you.
Don't fall into beliefs
That wash your senses away.
Don't drown into feelings
That are fleeting and confusing.
From all that I've been through,
I know what's best for me.
And with a sigh of relief,
My heart listened to me.
I get back to my business,
But all it takes is one look
To make me sidetracked and captivated,
Thinking you're damn cool.
These little feelings come by
Ever so often, but flimsy.
So I simply push it aside,
As if it never betided.
But came the day I dread,
The day you were all in my head.
All I need is another deep breath.
All I need is another reminder.
"Don't!"
Or at least that's what I hoped.
And so here I am,
Hoping it's just a fling.
