A poem about the fear that you have when you begin to fall for someone again. You feel as though you have become cruel, with the person that hurt you before, and you don’t want to treat them the same way you were treated.
If this were a dream you would be mine.
You’d see me and think of no one else
We’d talk about nothing as long as forever
I would be able to open myself
and believe that I’m worth something.
But I look in the mirror and I think of the other
I’m becoming him in every way
When I speak to you, it’s his voice
When I listen to, look at, and feel you
It’s like I’m not in my own body
And it’s terrifying because you don’t deserve
what happened to me, to happen to you.
If this were a dream I would be yours.
