I'm trying to hold myself back, <br />From falling so fast. <br />I don't want to say that I love you, <br />But I really like you a lot. <br /> <br />I fall for people easily, <br />It's just one of my weaknesses. <br />Every time I ended up falling for someone, <br />I always seemed to get hurt. <br /> <br />You don't have to promise that you won't hurt me, <br />Because honestly, <br />I'm not so sure I'll fully believe you. <br /> <br />I've been through this shit before, <br />I've gotten so close to someone, <br />Told them that I loved them, <br />They ditched me too quick for me to realize it in the end. <br /> <br />I'm not looking for someone to love, <br />You just make me feel so great. <br />Honestly, <br />When you move away from me, <br />Because you're mom's there, <br />I'd wish she'd go away, <br />So that you could hold me again. <br /> <br />To be completely honest, <br />I love that you're around and that you haven't gotten bored of me...yet, <br />But I do believe that you will, <br />And if you prove me wrong.. <br />Well, I might know you're true. <br /> <br />I love it when you smile, <br />Because obviously it makes me smile. <br />I like that you're gentle, <br />But can handle whatever comes your way. <br /> <br />Anyway, <br />I just wanted to say thanks. <br />Thank you for being my friend. <br />Thank you for being around. <br />Thank you for not ditching me, <br />Even if it's only been a few weeks... <br />Or a month..<br /><br />Shannon Nicole<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/just-wanted-to-say-thanks/
