Giving Up
Every time that I find out
that a girl seems to like me,
I act on that attraction,
and it seems to be untrue.
It is just a game
that I am not willing to play,
or maybe that I am
playing a game too?
I have learned many things
about the phrase: "I Love You".
Breathing those three simple words,
is like playing with fire.
Love is an emotion,
not just a word.
Accomplished through time,
not a fact of desire.
I have already given up
on going out of my way
to get to know a girl,
or her to know me.
In the past, that was worthless,
and a waste of my time.
Time to me is precious,
so that is the way it wil be.
