Twice Bitten, Forever Shy
I always seem to fall for the ones that lose interest.
I've been guilty of infatuation, but never like this.
I replay all the times we went out, and I wonder at what point did I do anything that would have fueled your doubt.
So now I'm forced to write shitty poems about you,
Because that pretty much all I can do.
I don't communicate my romantic feelings for people well.
But that's something we both had in common.
What we had seemed to end with a bow of the head, and a quick "Amen."
Your excuse was that the new road would weigh us both down.
But I've been educated on reading between the lines.
And I would have called you out, would it not have been so unkind.
