Fictional tales

"You can't undo a fall like this!"

They screamed trying to warn me

Because apparently love

Since it can sometimes hurt

Is something worth warning about 

I didn't want too but i heard their voices

And it clouded my judgement 

When i first laid eyes on you

Your smile, though endearing 

Held traces of a warning that finally made sense and was clear

I didn't mean to leave you there

Endearing smile and all

Hands outstretched 

Expecting my embrace

Left empty and scarred

I could love you better

But only if my heart 

Was empty and unafraid

But those voices in my head

And their cautious warnings

Left me fearful instead

So I'll love you like I love the rest

In inhales and exhales as I run
Maybe you should have listened to the voices
Like I did
Instead of opening up
And coming undone
