Madi Sipes collection

Am I afraid to be without you
or afraid to be alone?
Am I afraid to be with you?
for everything to feel too much like home?

I’m afraid to miss the pictures we painted
With the pads of our fingers
In the haze of car windows.
I'm afraid to walk past your house,
to wait for you at your doorstep
and find only the smudged
signatures of snails
scrawled across the concrete.

But
I still need you when I’m weak
and Im trying not to be weak
But its dark and
Im lonely and
I wish I was running my hands across your face

And I crave you always
But I give you space
