I look at you with confusion,
For I know I like you a lot,
But I can’t come to a conclusion,
On whether I should proceed or not,
Around you I feel happy,
But I am not sure to what extent,
You are oh so snappy,
With only the purest intent,
A ****** thought has not crossed your mind,
You are smarter than most,
You are also so kind,
And I swear I have never seen you boast,
If you ever did,
You would apologize immediately,
Acting like a kid,
Seeking forgiveness expediently,
If I were to ask you to be more than we are,
I would have to think deeply,
I still have a minor scar,
From someone I’m not over completely,
It would be unfair to you,
For me to not be mentally committed,
Only pain would ensue,
And I would feel twisted,

So although I do like you,
I just can’t put you through,
All those emotions,
My previous devotions,
That I struggle to move on from,
That I need to overcome,
Those feelings I still retain,
There is nothing to gain,
She is long gone,
Yet my brain remembers her song,
Yet fainter it becomes each day,
If only it would go away,

Then I could look at you in peace,
Knowing she would no longer bother me,
From her I need to release,
From her I need to be free
