Distance-wise, we aren't that far apart
But emotionally, it's another story.
We both feel the distance, the lacking
of everything that once mattered.
You took away my self-esteem -
replacing it with a dirty blanket
that ever served its purpose of silencing.
Someone had to know my joy
even if I made it seem as pain.
I was afraid and nervous,
dissapointed at you yet angry at myself
because you never praised me
and I never made myself worthy of it.
Falling prey to my own vulnerablilty
you caught me off-guard
and wrongfully consumated the friendship.
I'm not complaining anymore but
because of my stupidity, everyone else is.
All I'm doing now is weighing my chances,
testing the waters - because crazy as it
seems, I want it to wrok.
