i stare-the messages
between us, the smiles
and anecdotes we have
exchanged, they mean
more
than i could ever say.
but every time I go to
bridge the gap, be open;
vulnerable
my throat closes
I want to grow with you,
but i can't grow in this
box I've locked myself in.

One day I hope to find myself growing through the cracks, and one day maybe I can break that box.
