i wonder if its me sometimes.

i don't understand it,
when parts of a flower wilt,
the other stays alive.
my stars have learned to
shine their brightest without you,
but still they find its difficult to burn.

I'm capable of returning
to who I was over the summer
when I left all of my love to you
instead of slowing my true colors
and let some seep through.
It is dangerous,
and a loophole of regret.

I hope you know
that I am scared to find you back in my life,
but the fear of losing you again
haunts me every night.
