Falling Up

You will never fall in love with me.
Don’t try to convince me
That I will wait for you.
If you really look, you’ll see
I’m not here for the long haul.
Don’t imagine
You give me reason to stay.
When things get hard I’ll leave –
Don’t imagine
I’m not like the others.
Goodbye.
I’ll never say
I love you.

Now read from bottom to top,
a bleeding heart undone.
