There is sometimes a silence <br />That is not to be contained <br />I keep my distance trying not <br />To scare you away <br />And yet the thoughtless words <br />That fall from my lips <br />Tear you apart <br />And make you run away <br />If only you knew how much <br />Your long distance friendship <br />Means to me <br />I don’t know why I do this to those <br />That I want to be close to <br />I push you away <br />Sometimes in reality but <br />Mostly in my mind <br />Because of things that have happened <br />To me it is hard to let it all go <br />I am also afraid that I will <br />Give everything of me just like <br />I do for everyone that I love <br />I don’t want to be broken <br />And yet I think I am willing <br />In a twisted way I want to know <br />What that feels like <br />I don’t know if these words will <br />Ever make sense on paper <br />I mean they don’t even <br />Make sense in my head <br />I hope and pray that somehow this <br />Little though of mine someohow <br />Makes it to your eyes <br />Sorry if I scare you away <br />Sometimes it my only form of protection <br />Against pain <br />Forgive me <br /> <br />Know that I am praying that <br />You read this<br /><br />The Dreamers Movement<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/make-sense-my-head/
