I love how despite how illogical it is, somebody not speaking feels like the end of the world. Okay, maybe not the end. But I get panicky, I get worried that perhaps this is the end despite what they've said before. You think you're being cute and quirky and fun but really they're worn out by your smile, they're dreading the next time they have to pretend to hug you and tell you everything's just fine. Everything isn't fine. I can see it. You've been saying that everything is fine for far too long now when before you'd take me swimming in your mind, skinny dipping where few dare to go. Where did that closeness go? Please, speak?
