Don't Get Excited

Don't get excited.
This isn't for you.
You deserve so much better
And I feel the pressure.

The pressure at the tips of my fingertips
Pushing these keys.
Searching for something to say

But right now,
I just can't.
I can't give you what you need.

Don't get excited.
This isn't for you.
This isn't a piece.
It's a confession.

This is me admitting,
That I'm not ready.
To be vulnerable.
I need to take things slow.

Don't get excited.
This isn't for you.
Not a single word of it.

very nicely penned. i liked how you could express such feelings in such a nice way. when it is time of starting a relation, one of the two maybe expecting more than the other can offer. in your poem, as i think, you are the person who is not ready to give all what you are expected to give. i liked the images you have drawn, the words picking and the flow...

This is for me,dear poet.
I am excited to see your heart and fingers bleed for creative pressure.
I adore your confession.
