You'll never know that I miss you.
Even if I could find the words, the strength
I don't deserve to try and reclaim us
You're better off keeping me at length
The distance may hurt, but no wounds
will be made fresh. That's best.
If you read this, you'd call me out so easily
You'd remind me I was the cause of
this pain that lies within me.
"No pity for self inflicted wounds."
If only I had not replied to your angry words.
Maybe you'd be awake with me now,
making me laugh when I just couldn't cry
Pointing out beauty I often miss somehow...
But i distanced myself in a thousand ways
Choices piled up, unstoppable.
My stubborness to blame for this haze.
I want to give you this, but I won't.
So...you'll never know that I miss you.
