When I asked him for space I didn't want the sky
I only wanted a gap between him and I
When I asked for space I didn't mean forever

Space is what I was granted
But the space he gave was the sky
He didn't separate himself from me

He instead gave me love
A love I could not receive
A love that made me hide

A love that drove me far from him
A space was no longer what I needed
A separation between was what I seek

He was not the problem
His love was not wrong
But intern it was me who was in the wrong

The love that he wanted from me I couldn't feel
A love that he craved was not in my heart
I knew in that moment it was time for us to part

Space is such a funny thing
Space can mean so many things
How could one know the space that you mean
