my heart won't learn to disengage.

this is why i don't fit the profile
or have the qualifications;
as a candidate for flings.
my heart won't learn to disengage.

i've been told:
your strength is often your biggest flaw
in that case, mine would be loving too much,
and not knowing how/when to stop.

if only i could be fitted with an on/off button
then i could switch off
or at least have the option to disconnect
as and when i please

because as soon as i find myself embroiled
in a maybe-love affair (not of the illicit kind)
i almost always get emotionally involved
which, if you think about it
defeats the whole purpose of a fling, really

note: not that i've ever flinged flang flung

so, to further deter myself from ever
getting entangled in one..

to be 100% honest
i don't think this heart
will require any additional discouragement
here's where the story ends.
