Running Only to Fall

Chased 

I wanted to be caught 

Fleeing faster 

Only to slow again 


Not fearing what would come 

I should have run faster 


Stopped

I let you in 

Broke through skin 

Only to break hearts 


Not knowing I would fall 

I should have run faster 


Falling 

I wanted your touch 

But you walked 

Only left are pieces 


Not expecting to lose 

I should have run faster 


Running 

I havent left 

Waiting on you 

Only I remain 


Not knowing if you’ll return 

I should have run faster

The hardest thing about falling for someone is not knowing if they've fallen for you.
