You Don'T Know Me

You don't know me
But i love you
Adolescent walls
But i am ancient 
I love your smile
The way your hair curls
I love you get nervous in interviews
Sometimes
Am i in love with you
I think i am
But its the safest place to love
to love from afar
You won't hurt me
You can't
For we have never said a word
Never had the chance
You don't know me
This by far
Is the best romance

Michael Tor Date: 7/12/2022 12:14:00 PM Wow Jo this is certainly a protective mechanism for someone afraid of being hurt. It is sad that humans can hurt the people they are suppose to love the most that care the most for them, so sad. Very heartfelt piece and I hope your doing well. God bless you...
