You deserved better.

Lowkey things. Referring to no one.

I need some time to think about myself.
It’s like I’m getting too comfortable with myself.
I hope you’re not attracted to me at all.
I hope I like you too, lol.
Sorry if you feel confused.
This is not something I usually do.
Call me crazy but I’m too much for you.
Stop calling me with flattery.
This might not be what you wanted it to be.
I’ve been hurt twice now.
Thrice? That I cannot allow.
Dating while healing is not my thing.
I lay lowed for quite a time now.
Finding someone I could tell my vow.
It’s too early for you, so it’s not you.
I need time.
I know what you want.
So I replied with a taunt.
I wanted to talk about it.
But you’re so sweet.
You’re beautiful.
You’re gorgeous.
You’re intelligent.
You’re cheerful.
You deserved better.
I’m not for you.
This is the utmost hurt you’ll ever get.
I’m sorry.

This message is exactly the kind of twisted human interaction I love becuz it's true-to-life. People are unexpected & confusing. I love it when a writer reflects this in an imaginative way, as you've done. I was like this in my younger days, never letting a guy get too close, always keeping a guy off balance. I can see that kind of defensiveness in this wordplay. The only thing I do not like is how you use general words like "beautiful, gorgeous, intelligent" . . . be more imaginative, like the rest of your poem! Find something unexpected & quirky to show us about this girl, not the same old boring traits of beauty & perfection. I used to always leave a guy, saying I was doing him a favor, before I could hurt him . . . just like your ending! *wink! wink!* Fondly, Margie
