I felt love once

I felt love once,
Honestly and truly.
In the words you said, and the way you listened.
And the way you knew the answers to a part of me I didn't even know.
I believed that maybe, just maybe,
With some kind of luck and hope that it would work,
And then I realised for it to work, for it to happen.
It would have to include me.
And I knew then that it could never be.

First poem of any substance in a while, but it feels longer. Trust the ideas to come at 4am. Thanks for reading. Let me know what you think :)
