Stages


I think I cared too early

and felt too much

and enjoyed all of our shameless

emotion filled

and now

questionable times together

 

5 years I've known you

but never in this way

never would I have ever thought

that we

would have something

 

now that something, is nothing

nothing that I want anyway

and I cant help but wonder

will we ever be the same?

 

you see it started with a kiss

then led to a little more

and I cant help but ponder

should I have stayed away?

 

you see this could all be so

simple

well that's what I'd like to think

but you know how my girly

hormones

get in the way of things

 

so now we're back to

square one

and I cant help but ask 

is this better off?

 

so

no, I was not wrong

for caring too early

for feeling too much

enjoying all of our shameless

emotionless

and definitely questionable

times together

 

these are the stages

of almost being with you
