Don’t Think. Just Say.

It was so simple.
And yet, at the same time…
…so very hard.
The key was to just stop thinking
And answer.

‘Don’t think.’

It never really was that hard in theory-
In theory-
You just had to ignore all the red flags
And all the warning signs that kept telling you
That this was dangerous.

‘Just answer.’

Of course this was dangerous.
You’re putting your heart on the line
And if you do that…
There’s always a chance that…
…that you might get hurt.

‘You keep thinking! Stop it!’

And all you had to do
Was just stop thinking about it
And just answer the question
It never really was that hard
And it never has to be.

Don’t think.

‘I...’

Just say.

I love you.

…fini.
