please don’t fall in love with me. i’ll write about
the way your collar bones curve and the way your lip trembles when
you’re upset. i’ll focus more on the way you twiddle
your thumbs counter clockwise rather than the words slipping from
your mouth. i’ll remember your favorite song and listen to it
on repeat until the lyrics are engraved into the crevasses of my
brain, but i’ll forget why you prefer coffee over tea. please
don’t fall in love with me because once you realize i’m
not good enough, i’ll write about you until my palms bleed
and my bones begin to ache to serve as a reminder that i
should’ve tried harder to make you stay. i should’ve
focused more on the feeling i got when you held me rather than how
many god damn freckles you had on your arms. i should’ve
woken you up to a fresh cup of coffee, not tea. // 4 am
