sometimes i catch myself looking over at you just laughing, eating, or working, and i catch myself feeling completely immersed in a feeling of joy ... but then sometimes i look over at you and you're staring at the ground, or staring off into space, or just staring into nothing, and because i know that thats what you do when you feel nothing at all i catch myself feeling the need to do anything to make you feel something ... and then after all the staring is done and you are perfectly balanced on the spectrum of emotion i catch myself thinking why aren't you ever looking over at me? ― j.r.
