it was impossible not to love him
as there was this force
pushing me to him
but there was something else
keeping me on a distance
never believe what was happening
there was always this fear
the feeling of never being good enough
like I’ve always known
and I knew the same will be
when I was with him in the end
it will be impossible for him to love me
like I need to be loved
as was clear by the dedication
his son showed to me
despite all the admiration
he pulled back from me
not being able to ignore the attention
of the other women around him
they were known for him
they looked safe in his world
as I was always the broken spirit
that needed his comfort
they both showed me I could never
be like the women in their world
I couldn’t fall for their gazing eyes
I wasn’t that kind of woman
that will ever fall for the trap
caged in compliments and charm
They will never be mine
As they could never fulfill
my broken spirit
that is healed
with love
