Eyes staring at nothing
Nothing
I can't face the obvious
I don't want to see what's really going on
Afraid you don't love me
Afraid you don't understand me
Afraid
That when I take my eyes off the nothingness
I'll see everything
Nothing
I can't face the obvious
I don't want to see what's really going on
Afraid you don't love me
Afraid you don't understand me
Afraid
That when I take my eyes off the nothingness
I'll see everything
Author notes
I'm still trying to figure out what the hell this is.
I'm not quite sure yet, but when I do, I'll get back to you on it. Sorry for the weird, suck-tastic, BEAST of a poem that I have laid before you. Just wanted to try something different. Besides, I'm impulsive. I would have written it at some point anyway. Thanks for reading.

Okay I know I said the last poem was the best one I've read by you in a while, but this is even better. I absolutely adore it. It says so little but says so much at the same time. My favorite part out of it all is:
"I can't face the obvious
I don't want to see what's really going on"
Because that is true.
About you,
about me.
About pretty much anyone who gets as ... hmm ... stubborn... I guess? As we do whenever we're set on our decisions.
Yet another brilliant write from you.
