I was young in love and scared
So I packed up and went away
The feelings I had for you were more than love
You were out of state, young and completely unaware
So you watched me leave as if I just didn’t care
And I handle it with little regard to how it affected you
I waded around you, not realizing the confusion and pain you had to bear
All I knew was the hole missing from when I had you there
I turned away and led on experiences, knowing you weren’t out of reach, but I trekked on pretending my life was something we couldn’t share
I paused all interaction all the while your life was just beginning to fill with action
I sat by watched time pass and knew at some point you outgrew the idea of me in your life
I spent my time feeling love and falling in it, falling out and learning myself along with it
I spent the months figuring it all out, and it pointed back to you
Naturally I allowed my emotions to run freely, you sent back speechless and feeling a bit frazzled by this discovery
We began a journey on what started as potentially, and that transitioned to eventually, which quickly ended, and you called that inevitability
I called it blasphemy, but sadly a letter works two ways, and recently you haven’t written me
So lately I’ve been silently sitting and contemplating what words I could muster
Yet again it’s a blunder, a wonderland of darkness
If you’re reading this, then thank you for the experiences, the journeys been great, I hope you can look back and relate
