Did I really walk awayor could I simply not be brave?
Did you close the door on friendship,
when you sent a second-hand apology?
Are all the years too much for us
to ever speak again?
Would it be weird to reappear,
or would I be a stalker freak?
Did I imagine our common voice,
the way you too could spill your soul?
Why is is hard to admit I think about,
and reanalyze our old chats?
I feel so uncertain and self-defeating....
Mentally, I slap myself,
Conclude I've made no progress within
I'm simply the same scared little girl
who believes herself worth nothing
Sorry me who cannot reach out
brought down to her knees in shame
Wondering why this need arose
a compulsion to erase old wounds and pain
