The emotional depth I have shown
Is like hiding
behind a closed door.
The distance you added
has me questioning your love.
With pain,
I apologize
and try to stay connected.
Yet the gap
made me see
through it all.
Was it my words that made you fall,
or the fantasy
you dreamed of about me?
I exhausted myself,
removed all the noise —
yet you chose
not to listen to my sadness.
Was I trying hard enough
to be close to you,
so you would not doubt my love?
Was the pain so heavy
that you refused
to stand by me?
Were you not ready this whole time,
even when I knew
and gave you the space you needed?
Blame me with confusion
that I repeat
a million times.
I will let you go
even when I don't want to.
I will let you find the one
when you are ready.
