Caught Off Guard, Floored By Love

Maria Mena

Here comes another broken heart
Spotted a while back
Back at the start
We’re oddly getting used to this aren’t we?

Sunday sober loneliness
I’m its inventor
Reigning princess
I’m contemplating giving in
Keep drinking

But they say, just when
You’re not afraid
Not expecting

You will be caught off guard,
Floored by love

I don’t know if I’m capable
Of loving madly, I’ve never tried the
Unapologetic kind of falling

I don’t know if I’m lovable
I don’t know my own worth
But I know my soul.
I’ll wait my turn, I want to learn, I’m ready.

But they say, just when
You’re not afraid
Not expecting

You will be caught off guard,
Floored by love
