i don’t want that feeling

i don’t want that feeling

the one that makes my heart burn like a forest fire

and melt like a warm candle

i don’t want it at all

not one bit

i don’t want that feeling

that makes my head run around in circles

until i’m dizzy with delight

i don’t want that feeling

because i know that

once i feel it

it will be

devastating

once that feeling,

that special, scary feeling,

gets taken away

and i’m left
