No love

I am so not ready to love you

nobody taught me how to love

I just fall hard

and there's no way back for me

My body aches for peace

and my head is ready to fall apart

I'm going numb

for you

because of you

I'm at war

with my feelings

for you

I wish you'd

break me

so I could start to heal

I'm so not ready to love you

I'm so not ready to love myself

I wish you'd
break me
so I could start to heal
I'm so not ready to love you
I'm so not ready to love myself

I really like this part, yet it's truthful but sad. Nicely expressed

Welcome to the adult world ...seems you are leaving childhood behind and it really is hard.

[John Alexander McFadyen]

A folorn and lost soul indeed as they struggle to understand themselves and the feelings love provokes. Nicely penned in this flowing free verse.
