flutters
a poem about trying to trust
Is it wrong of me to ponder?
Moments my mind likes to conjure
My head loves to play pretend
and sadly, I’m already envisioning the end
Hard to see past what I already know
Even tho, there’s so much in the unknown
How will you hold me when things aren’t well?
Only time can help me tell
What if I don’t have the time to give?
And can’t live on a hope and a wish?
What if you can’t give me what I need?
Because I can not live on relationship repeat
Sure, my heart is full of flutters
And feels more than feelings for others
It's easier to picture the ending before we began
For what if I leap and there’s no place to land?
So many what ifs are tied to you
But to thine own self I must be true
Undeniable magnatism I've not felt in years
Here's to hoping this won’t end in tears
