Heartbeat

Circumvent me, and spin me around.

There are no dalliances, only creed to newborn crushes and something of the like of love.

Only to wonder, only to ponder. Only to see if one can step off the bridge of loneliness to find that love.

Self-respect adjacent and crippling anxiety, maybe it’s too selfish to be alone or equipped to another.

Another thought, another query.

None of it matters so… Only a flicker.
