Calculated Love

the first time

we met

i bet

you're easy to love

but hard

to get over.

and i wasn't wrong.

for now i am

on the verge

of falling...

and this makes me
scared.

but the fear

only makes me

braver.

so i take

the plunge

and allow myself

to fall.

but still

with extreme

caution.

after all

i only take

calculated risks.

just don't

let me

fall too deeply

while you

try to play

it cool.

otherwise

i'll break

my own fall

and start

the process

of moving on.

and it will be

over

before

it even

began.
