i am cautious
because i have been
hurt
in the past
by people just
like you.
you often looked at me
eyes fixed on me
i tried
not to overthink it.
but
i often wonder if
it meant anything
or if you were just
looking around
it is probably the latter
but i still want to hope
that you may have
cared for me
even just once
i put this out
of my mind
as soon as possible
i can't have these thoughts
or i will begin to hope
and yearn for you
and i cannot let that happen
when it is more than likely
you have never
thought of me
at all
