Future proof

You appeared, caught my eye, one cigarette, one smile, one 'hello'.
Two months now, and that exciting unfolding of shared discovery and potential
Fades into doubt.
My heartfelt desire to be the best I can
Sheds light on your scrappy lethargy.
My innate desperation to use my life
Makes your sleep seem irritating.

Now to find the kindest way
To explain my regret
And butcher your expectations.
