fly

I was anxious and excited,

I took a step your way.

You lifted me up,

And then abruptly backed away.

FEELING.

Disappointment.

Familiar, but new.

I never expected

you not to follow through.

I let my guard down.

Broke my own rule.

what an idiot,

I was such a fool…

I must be heartache prone,

It clings to my being.

The weight. and the truth

You kept me from seeing

Was I nothing?

Was any of it true?

I smile and say I understand,

"people do what they have to"

I am nothing,

So I will let go…

there are just so many things,

that we will never know.
