Author’s Notes:

I accidentally fell in love this summer. And as far as I know, he doesn’t know about it... And I’d like to keep it that way. So, now I’m trying to fall out of love with him, because the love I have causes me too much pain to hold on to. So, that's the idea of this poem.

Relax and Enjoy!

What is this?
Simple longing?
A mere desire?
Or just imagining?

What is it?
A dream?
A flitting fantasy?
Just shadows and moonbeams?

No! it is not!
This love is real!
It is so very young,
And yet it’s not ideal...

It’s so small,
It’s just begun.
Fragile lines are crossed,
Hopes soar, but they’re undone...

This is pain?
My heart did fall,
Emptied of all love,
Full of pain, but no gall.
