Maybe we aren’t meant to be together.
Were we ever together in the first place?
It kinda hurts all this waiting,
But being who I am, I say nothing at all.

I know what it’s like to be forced into something,
Something you’re not at all ready for.
So I take my time,
Telling myself that I’ll wait for you,
But how much longer I can wait, I know not.

Time passes by really slowly,
But my thoughts speed by me so fast.
I think about all the memories we shared,
And the ones I hope for still.
You’ve said a lot of things,
I took you way too seriously.
My subconscious warned me long ago but it felt too real so I didn’t listen.

Everything feels so right,
But at the same time so wrong.
I see Instagram posts everyday,
Further confusing me about what I should do.
I ask for advice from my friends,
They tell me “just ask him out already”
But I know you aren’t yet ready,
You still wanna take it slow and steady.

I’m not in love with you,
At least not just yet.
But I want to be,
And I really want it to be with you.
That’s why,
If you’re interested,
You need to let me know.
Before the inevitable occurs,
And it all ends,
Before it even begins.

Just finished reading a Colleen Hoover novel and I’m still feeling the after effects if you get what I mean.

I really hope I’m able to write romantic novels like her someday. Or to at least finish a mundane one. For now I’ll stick to poetry.
