Too Close
I hate pretending
a way of fending
off others mending
from themselves
another good thing
lost like a shoe string
problems I do bring
lack purpose
show yourself to me
paint it heavenly
it ends tragically
I’m confused
because you were here
I filled you with fear
now you’ve disappeared
it’s my fault
I live with a space
like a buffer place
because, just in case
so I lose
