My heart is still paused in a hope.
But I fear with the negative is what I will have to cope.

“Don’t overthink”, I am told.
But I feel as if what was started could be turning cold.

Time is quickly passing by…
Tonight I let myself truly cry.

Too much I already care
Wanting to trust, to love is this snare.

Do you feel the same?
Or is it still too much to give this a name?

Soon a decision will have to be made
By then will what had begun start to fade?
