False Call

I tried my best not to fall in love with you.

Deep down, I knew you wouldn’t return the love I sought, but my heart wouldn’t listen.

Now, I am left with a void that can’t be filled because I fell in love with you, knowing you would never fall in love with me.

How could I let this happen as I sat back and reflected?

Were they the romantic words you used as we talked daily?

Was it the way you understood the things I was trying to say?

What was it about you that made my heart slip into falling for you?

I tried to reign in my feelings, but the more we talked, the further I slipped.

I should have known that I would fall so quickly for you as you remind me of me when I am getting to know someone.

I am always open and flirting, and it quickly gets mistook, and I believe that’s what has happened between me and you.

I feel foolish now as I see how I have misled others, so I can’t say that you are to blame when I have done the same.

Even though this was a false call, I will always hold dear to my heart the time I spent getting to know you.

You were like a breath of fresh air, and your way with words will always make me smile when I think of the banter we used to share.

If only you had cared for me as I cared for you, our time together would’ve been like a dream come true.
