Beware

Beware of those eyes that draw me in
Rejoice in that smile which lures me in
Employ every ounce of willpower to resist you

Never allow the faintest of touches
Deny every emotional response that emerges
Accept the inevitable knowledge of rejection

Neglect to mention the burning desire
Impart no indication of something lurking below
Somehow behave as if nothing has changed

Believe that if it’s meant to be it will be
Engage that self control which has kept me safe
Absorb the warmth of our friendship

Understand why the constraints exist

Tell myself there’s nothing there
Identify the method to keep me sane

Forget the twinkle in your eye
Upset the rhythm of the attraction
Love the person, hate the game
