M.I.A - For Mia Poem by Rebecca Johnson 2

What is the point of love?
Of a romance that is set on fire only to explode into embers,
I don’t remember
A time when I thought it would be worth it.
I’m sure it exists, but I can’t resist
Denying it
So while everyone around me was falling,
I was calling for a ceasefire
Because I know that they’re all liars
So I’ve been missing in action
Losing attraction
Shying away from the opportunity
to find another heart
Because I’m scared (shh, don’t tell)
That if I fell I’d hit the ground
So while everyone else was on their way
I was simply
M.I.A
