She is quite complex--
acutely aware of it,
so when she begins
to feel a connection with
someone new, it is
both invigorating and scary.
When she gives into
euphoric lustful feelings,
she won’t be able
to let herself embrace it,
because she will see
the ending before it can begin.
She has been naive
discovering herself in
Arms that appeared strong--
Allowing herself to sink
Into eye contact--
However, her senses deceived her.
When she finally
Found trust in him, she unpacked
Her deepest secrets--
Baggage in all shapes and form.
This is how she learned
the strongest arms can become fatigued.
She broke eye contact
looking down at her pieces.
She avoids his gaze
Looks away-- dazed aimless stare;
Deep in thought content--
Romanticizing her loneliness.
