When we became close, your heart became afraid.
You feared what my heart would see in yours.
You began to push me as far as you could trying to keep me from your heart
I fought back trying to stay close, but you wouldn’t have me seeing anything in your heart.
For months we fought. I tried to forget about you but my heart held on.
You kept me at arms length regardless of the hours we spent being friends.
Everything we had built with each other was now in ruins.
Rememberable firsts now fading from thoughts.
one hundred foot loss from wince we had came.
But as i stare into your eyes over the the rim of my cup.
Seeing you smile like that made all the pain worth it.
