poetry scraps #5

Hey girl, it’s me again
Always thinking too much,

Always afraid to overstep
Wondering about that leap of faith

And we seem to have it good
Around you I feel alive again
But I can’t see what’s on the road

What’s next lies behind a curtain
All the banter and no pushback
Still I’m never sure if you like me back
Sometimes curled up I let my mind wander

But then I call it back, too afraid it’s a goner
I thought such fears were in the past
I’d given up, that die was cast
I thought l’d never get another chance at this
Life was always less hit and more miss

But here I am, butterflies in my head
Wondering if fate is really this kind
Doubting the truth of what I see
Wondering
If you really like me
