Wolf

To the boy whose message I never replied to

I’m sorry
Truly
It all became a little too much
All at once

You see
At first
I was blinded
By the thought that maybe this was it
Maybe you were the one
It seemed like a real possibility
And I'm just a silly girl
So I clung on to that thought

Then reality hit me
I saw you for what you really were
The wolf hiding beneath the
Skin of a sheep

So I dropped you
Just like that
Even though wolves can be loved
Just as much as sheep are
