Maybe Love
love
such a finicky feeling
a feeling
a fleeting emotion
infinite definitions
with cruel subjectivity
maybe i did
maybe i didn't
why does it matter
my answer wouldn't change your feelings regardless
how can four letters hold such power
to steal you from my life
love
i don't know what it means
i don't know what it looks like
love
like a friend or something more
something you didn't want
all-consuming adoration
i just want what is best for you
maybe that's the same thing
maybe i never did
it doesn't matter anyways
when i'm confronted with your
stilted conversation and guarded eyes
love
pains twin flame
my melancholy gaze
trained on your tight lipped smile
this wasn't how it was supposed to go
my love
