Are You Scared?

by ShaunaMarie   Sep 18, 2008


You're thousands of miles away.
Let me count them...
Fifteen hundred miles between us.
You promised before I left that we would keep in touch.
I haven't heard a single word from you.
You've broken your promise
Which breaks my heart.
And your actions don't speak any louder than what used to be your words.
I left that state for a reason.
Not just geographically,
I also left the state of mind that I was in while there.
I left behind all my sorrow and my depression.
Now I am NOT sorry
For what was, and what could have been.
Now I am just angry with you
For making my life so difficult.
Why did I have to meet you
Meet up with you
Become friends with you
And then kiss you.
Why did I choose to share myself with you
You know every little piece of me.
And all of that goes to waste.

I clean out my pictures, and every time
I see the pictures from our last few weeks together.
And every time I miss you more.
I miss the days when everything was sunny
And it was okay to sweat a little.
There has been no one like you
And never will there be.

So today I sit hopelessly alone inside my head
Waiting for some kind of closure I suppose.
I will never get that closure
And I will never get another chance
To close my eyes and kiss you
Or to stand on the bridge with you
Above the water, on the edge.
And you whisper "Are you scared?"
When you know I am
And I have always been.

I was terrified to lose you
And so I did.

So what do I have to fear now?
