Feelings Worth Feeling


i don't want it:
this feeling i feel
if i take it:
I'll be giving in I'll be letting go of everything my brain says is right.
but what's a brain for anyway?
that's why i have a heart.
but still:
i don't want it
don't offer it to me
because i just might be tempted to take it
with the best of intentions,
of course.
but please
don't give it
i don't want it,
keep it
keep it close
keep it secret
i can't take it
i wont take it
because i don't want it.
and i know
just because i don't want it
doesn't mean i haven't already had it
in the first place.
