Maybe I'll let my Heart be Happy
I've never felt like this,
 I've never thought of taking a chance
 with someone like him.
 Never took that step,
 without knowing they wouldn't step with me.
 Always chose the ones 
 who didn't want me.
 Now..
 I wonder what he'll do.
 I wonder what he'll say.
 For once,
 I'm not wishing to run away.
 If he says no,
 The World isn't at an end.
 If he says yes,
 the usual pessimistic view
 Will most likely come back.
 But maybe this time-
 it wont be as harsh,
 If I'm the one who brings it up.
 Maybe this time,
 I'll just let My Heart be happy..
 Instead of letting myself 
 dissect it.

i completely agree!! i ALWAYS over analyze e.v.e.r.y.t.h.i.n.g in my life. it's really frustrating, because then i feel like i secretly set my self up for falure. ya know? like, if i over analyze a relationship i freak out and think of reasons why we shouldn't be going out, or how something could go wrong and "we.re just gonna break up at some point anyways." and honestly? it's sooo tiering. i am currently in a new relationship. im 16 (and this is my second relationship....i led the single life for a while now. LOL) and i've known him for about 4 years. and we've liked eachother for..4 years. so now its great:) and i'm trying not to over analyze everything! lol. just thought i'd share a bit with you about myself and how i related to your poem:) nice work!
and i'd love if you checked out some of my work as well and told me what you thought.
especially my poem 'Torturer of a King'. it would be appriciated:)
againg great job!!
