You crawl under my skin
Invading my thoughts, my space, my breathe
You take control of me and my thoughts
Become our thoughts
Distance makes you detestable
(more)
Easy to hate, as I fixate on the things
That make this separation easier
But you won’t let my monster
Live the myth I’ve created
Conflicted by the feelings I can’t resolve
Because your everything and nothing
And this loneliness is nothing and everything
Eating away at the resolve I thought I had
You see through my deception
And the mask of crinkled eyes, laughing teeth
You make me feel inadequate, acts
Dictated by desperation to prove
I don’t need you
But there’s a chasm
Where before there was contact
Our bodies no longer mold like they did
Too careful, too calculated
The cold warns away the sting
So I wander far away from your reach
And hope one day our hold will loosen
Because it’s too late now to go back
I can’t give you what you want
And I mourn the moment I could
(less)
