too afraid of what might happen

it's fine to be seeing
you again,
but I am not as strong as I was

my hello's
sound more like
goodbye

though, why speak?

your eyes are loud enough
to drown me
out anyway

hidden
in your blink,
a message

let me read

close your
eyes
so I can
never forget

they tell stories
of our past
that I've played
over and over
in my mind already,
and would rather
not hear again

we are both,
so different now

we've grown much too alike

your self inflicted
anguish
shows it all

today is what it was meant to be,
awkward and endearing

I cannot risk falling in love,
so for the best of us both, I leave
this at goodbye

Hello

A bit of a heartbreak here.

Differenet structured a few breaks I wondered about

Quote:
my hello's
sound more like
goodbye

though,
why speak?
this one , the though should it be seperated on its own or attached to the first? I enjoyed the images, the sorrow in a blink, I wondered at the ending

Quote:
for the best of us both,
I hope we never
see each other again
to risk falling in love
just wonder if reworking it to another ending. It just seemed patched on at the end, could be me so please feel free to ignore. there should be something maybe a simple goodbye. not sure

Thanks for the read, enjoyed

Hey. I was drawn in my the first line. I know that feeling.
I like the last line it just rounds it off.
