It still baffles me how two people can be so close
Then in just a short time be so distant
When you wish you could say hello
But you don't want to seem desperate
Because you're doubting yourself when they don't say it first
And you give yourself a thousands reasons as to why
Maybe they are shy
Yet you know that's not true
Or perhaps you did something to make them mad at you
You assume and assume
Till fear and loneliness grabs a hold of you
And you think that it must just be you
Then you consider the opposite of course
They don't hate you
In fact they feel the same
Scared of what to say
Because the distance as grown so great
The war between these two notions
Makes you go insane
However you tell yourself you'll be okay
You didn't need them anyway
(L.E)
