Any closer and I will run, but now you know that You know I am afraid of closeness because the fear that you might leave. Pushing away and it lessens the blow when you leave, at least that is what I thought. You wont leave, that is what you told me, even if I try to You stay, even after I told you I may not You stay, but not only do you stay, you help You told me "we" can figure out a way to battle the shadows that haunt me This time I'm not alone.
