please don’t come

Please don’t come if you will give me your attention but you won’t clarify your intention. Please don’t come if you’ll make me feel loved and then leave me hanging and confused. Please don’t come if you’re unsure about your feelings and just sorting experiences. Please don’t come if you couldn’t tuck up your courage and pursue the right way.

Please, stay where your feet are. You can move in different directions and meet other women who are less vulnerable and sentimental. Please don’t fetch me at work if you have nothing to do nor bring coffee to my table. Please don’t tap my head when my shoulders are heavy. Please don’t gaze at my eyes and tell your grandiose visions of the future. Please don’t make any grand gestures that would make any woman fall deeply in love.

Please don’t come until you’re ready.
