"At times I found it frustrating, boring, burdensome, and above all, I was afraid I could never figure out how you really felt."

Feb 14th


After the second week of doing what you wanted,

Which consisted of staying in, ordering food, and cuddling,

You didn't seem to notice it was Valentine's day.

I expected something special.

Which was a mistake.

I should've known better.

When the day went the same as any other

There were no surprises

Except fewer words were spoken

Your arm didn't wrap around my waist

And you didn't bother to watch the movie

You seemed like you were in a different galaxy

And I was stuck, like every other time

Observing.

Watching.

Studying.

Even though it always ended up the same way

I could never understand

Your feelings

Your Facial Expressions

Your body language

Just you.

While you were dozing off

I was wide awake

Waiting for those words to make my heart giddy.

The words to make me feel like I could understand you.

But those words never came

Instead came soft snores

And the eerie silence

Making me seem even farther away from you

Then I already was.
