Poem: "I am more careful now"

I am more careful now, dear boy

A little more careful than before

To do things with such intent

My words, my notions, my time spent

I deliberate long on words now, dear boy

Deliberating more than before

Back and forth to make sure

I wasn't too obvious nor too demure

I am not so free now, dear boy

Not as free when I didn't feel, like before

Maybe it's best you haven't a clue

Yet hoping that you'd respond to me, too

You've got me stuttering now, dear boy

Silly things, sweet nothings, stranger still than before

My heart may ache but none compared

To the headache I feel for you, dear boy
