I really like the opening two lines, but L3 shatters the moment. It's a bit like a dog being pulled up short on a leash when it's expecting to be able to run on joyfully
I did wonder if the final stanza would end with an echo of the first line too, keeping you trapped in the puzzle, setting the whole thing up for a redo-from-start.
Whatever. I like it, it makes me smile; I have no idea why!
Thanks for commenting

I've heard it's not a good thing, if you have to explain your poem
But I guess it got a bit cryptic, what I was trying to convey.Yeah, the very last line lost me a bit too. I was trying to convey some kind of ambivalence.
Haha, I see what you mean with the dog
I'll work on that.I'm happy it made you smile. And the fact that you have no idea why, somehow makes it even better
