Reserved feelings

My eyes lit up as a message came in

Drifted thoughts came rushing back as a broken smile

The unexpected, they say,

will keep you on the hook just enough

so you'll keep wanting more

Uncertainties cloud my mind

Is it worth opening up again?

I try my best to perfect my lines

Only to be put on hold in return

As I wait for the recurrence

to drain me time and again

Day to day, as my heartstrings tugged

all for you
