It’s a roller coaster

Start as friends knowing you will turn into lovers

Lovers in a world of their own break off when one wants to expand the options

Left to either lose that lover, first that friend you stick around balancing your feelings

Your actions speak of love but your words border on indifference

You can feel the suffocating weight of yourself falling deeper and deeper into this person that doesn’t want you as whole, keeps you at a distance

You back off, space, not because you really want it, you really need it

How foolish will you seem if you fell for someone when you were clearly told that what you want they don’t

Yet life works its way in between…a friend is needed and despite what you know is best for you…you offer what has always been there for the taking…your heart

Much like before it isn’t wanted … safe guarding your heart…you find yourself rejected because you were performing a balancing act and fell chest first
