you

at first there was a distance,
day by day,
one step closer...
closer and closer,
until i saw all of you,
i liked what i saw.

at first there was an awkwardness,
day by day,
a little more comfort...
less and less,
until we could laugh,
i liked how it felt.

at first there were secrets,
day by day,
we shared pieces of ourselves...
more and more,
until we could cry,
i liked being whole.

at first there was perfecion,
day by day,
growing stronger between us...
peaceful and calm,
we knew each other,
i liked being complete.

at first there was nothing,
day by day,
the nothing grew larger...
eating it's way inside,
we stopped learning,
we stopped exploring,
we stopped feeling,
until i was standing alone,
i did not like the emptiness.

i saw you in the distance.... walking away.
