i'm distancing myself from you.
i don't know how to stop.
i'm making it awkward.
i've stopped talking to you.
i've retreated back into myself,
holding onto my tongue,
stuck in my thoughts,
forgetting the words.

you make me so happy,
living in a world built of joy.
but i'm starting to drag me down
and drown me in an ocean full of
sadness.
i'm ruining my chance.
i'm slipping under
and i don't know how to
come back up.
