PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I wish I could tell you I miss you

And that I think about you a lot lately

But that would only complicate things

Between us

Because I was the one who pushed you away

"Don't get too attached to me," I said

What kind of person would say that?

I justified it

Said I still have things to figure out by myself

Said I didn't want to be unfair to you

Said that I wanted you to be happy

But the truth is

I'm just really terrified of losing my independence

I'm terrified of trusting someone

And getting my heart broken (like so many others)

And I still am

So, yes, I miss you, but I have to bear it

After all, I still have things to figure out by myself

But someday, somewhere, when I'm okay

I'd like to see you again.
