But I Really Do

I want to, as much as I don’t. I don’t want to look at the walls you’ve built. Especially because I know why you have them. I don’t want to hear the pauses between your words as you try to hide your feelings and the specifics of your life. I don’t want to hear your rejection because I know there’s more to it than a simple no.

But I would love to exchange a glance. One that will let me know we’re good.

Everything is settled.
