I met someone special today,
He reminds me of you in every way,
He knows just what to say and can make me smile,
But I wont be ready to have butterflies for a while.
Potential, this guy definitely does show,
Great or not, I will never know,
I've learned to keep my distance thanks to you,
I now keep to myself and believe that thing called love, isn't true.
What makes me mad is that I bought into this crap,
You showed me that commitment is code for trap.
No matter what you do someone gets hurt,
Commitment feared, you've caused me to convert.
I never understood what you meant up until now,
I couldn't fight with you, I didn't know how.
When you told me we should back off, I didn't know what to say,
But now that you're gone it's clear, I never again want to feel this way.
I won't have a problem with distancing myself,
I'll place my heart upon a shelf
My only weakness that will cause more strife,
Is that I would let you come back into my life.
