Will my heart be broken? By you?
It seems like my heart will be broken, by you, gentle man
I keep denying that
I keep ignoring the facts
The fact of you, a heart breaker!
You’re too sweet to hurt anyone
You’re too gentle to be selfish
But you have precedents, my dear
Rumors about you are scaring me
They say you’ll hurt me, & we won’t be happy
They say, you’re different and we won’t get along
I hate to believe them, I hate to lose faith in us
But, tell me, dear, should i?
Or should I ignore my senses, ignore their rumors and just believe in one thing, in one absolute fact, that I loved you ever since the first moment and we had those short precious moments together and, i’ve never felt so alive or happy since then.
Its your birthday, today
& I can’t sleep without sending you a gesture
Still hesitating, shaking, and tossing
Can’t decide which way to go
Nicely loving you
Or safely ignoring you?
Which way will be less grievous?
Consequences are coming
& I’m afraid i’m too soft to handle them
I’m too affectionate to hurt you
& too soft to be hurt by you
For the best,
I’m afraid this story will be sealed and forgotten and never be lived, My sweet gentle heart-breaker
