My Mistake Poem by Michelle Dominique Augustyn

My Mistake



So I made the move, I went too far, I know that now.
My thoughts lead me to believe you want me, maybe.
I don't know if I want you, or my heart wants you.
I desire my heart to want you but is that my mind?
Is my ego or my mind pulling me down the path of something more?
All these unanswered questions and still you remain.
Are you the answer?
Am I way off?
Frustration overflows me.
Questions that go unanswered are my weakness, my match lit.
You move me, even when I hear your name.
The lion did fall in love with the lamb, but who is who?
I fear my aggressiveness scares others, especially you, away.
It has happened before and now he was another dropp of blood from my heart, dissolved.
Maybe it's me, maybe it's you, maybe it's us.
So was making the move too far, do I know that now?

I like this piece. I love the way the speaker questions their feelings for the other because in some situations, like one I have been in, the mind tells you to feel what the heart wont, and where the distinction is between the two, you just don't know.
