How Love Works
It’s funny how love works sometimes
one minute
you’re both strangers
the next
you’re in love
with a man
whom you can never have
he proposes
to every girl
any girl
besides you
even though
he never paid to take up space
in your brain
or your heart
and he leads you on
until
he doesn’t.
and you’re wishing you’d done something
said something
but you did do something
you loved him
