I don't close my eyes

Mon, 08/05/2019 - 21:47 -- LEchols

I don't close my eyes anymore 

and "fall" in love.

Every step is measured and 

taken slowly and

revised and edited and

that was a mistake

loving you

or feeling something for you was a mistake.

 

I never really loved you.

 

And that is my blessing. You were not the man I wanted to love. 

You were not the man I wanted to fall in love with. 

You were not the man I wanted.
