Ohh let’s go. My soul left my body when I knew.
I said, crap, not this again.
Not me falling for the unavailable and avoidant, again.
Not me losing my spark for something that has left the chat.
Maybe that’s me this time. Ohh no.

I am so confused and so happy I stood my ground and did not fold.
I smile because I see myself wanting more from someone who has left.
Can you imagine me with someone who will never leave?
Ahhh, I say with the deepest breath, wearing my biggest smile.

If I can give this much to someone who only gave me the eyes,
can you imagine me with someone who gives me everything
and the green light?

You are so wrong for me—
I’d never cross the red light.
Definitely not doing it for you.

I am planning my next plans
so I never have to feel like I must stop myself from caring.
But I am never crossing the line
with someone like you.
