Garden path

A part of me wants her
To give me feelings.

I wanted to feel alive.

Not dead inside.

I'd grown too old for love.

Though I cared what she

Thought of me

Couldn't quite seeĀ 

The forest for the trees.

Ā 

Didn't dare to dreamĀ 

Big like I should have.

Safer to remain small.

I knew how to do that.

Knew too wellĀ 

How to mine into the dark.

A god leadingĀ 

Me down the garden path.

If you see two roads, one leadingĀ 
to darkness and one leading to a garden, I do hope you choose the
garden path. Ā  BĀ

However true it may be.
