NEW FLAME

NEW FLAME

Out of nowhere he came,

Then I knew I wasn’t going to stay the same.

A distraction from what seemed like hell,

He helped me to feel well.

His approach was unconventional, yet charming.

Somehow, I didn’t see it coming.

He reminded me how beautiful I am,

He showed me a whole new plan.

He reminded me how smart I am,

He reminded me that I can.

But whatever this is set out to be,

I cannot stay because this isn’t for me.

My past taught me to not get comfortable,

Don’t put all my cards on the table.

I shall leave him alone,

Even though I am not done,

I should keep myself company,

Until to try again I am ready.
