(73) Too Close to be Alright

Way too close
Way too comfortable
& the strange hope
that keeps trying to inflate
my weary heart
Is a terrible thing

There's too much
to talk me out of it
& who wants
a reluctant lover

I miss knowing
every moment
that I wanted to
dive into someone's love
& arms & dreams
to consume them
& be their everything

You should never feel
awkward & shamed 
by who you pursue
if that's the case, 
think of the spared
hearts & egos

I may not know
what I truly want
but I know this confusion
isn't where I belong
