i've never met someone

who has confused my heart as much as you do.


one moment i think it's starting to fall

into your open palms,

but the next second i'm yanking it away

before you can catch it.


the petals are crumbling between my fingers

as i pluck them from the stem of the flower,

wondering do i love him, do i love him not?
