I’d almost say unrequited love
although that’s slightly dramatic
see,
I won’t deny myself the simplest
of life’s pleasures
such as falling for another
yet he will
because
he fools himself into thinking
that we get to choose love in this life
that we get to decide the moment
we ridiculously fall
but
if we chose it wouldn’t be real
it’s illogical and daunting
but we can only take
what life gives
