HOW TO NOT FALL IN LOVE by Nzisa I. Kioko

Teach me,

How to laugh,

How to hold on to friendships,

How to be a friend,

How to live with them…

 

Teach me,

How to share,

How to hold back…

When enough has been said,

How to give in,

When it is time to…

 

Teach me…

How to be all these things,

How to keep it to myself,

How to stop when it’s time to…

Teach me please,

How to not fall in love,

How to have the odds,

Always… how to not;

How to not.
