we are growing further apart day by day and i fear that we eventually will cut all ties with each other. and i'm trying so hard to get closer to you but how can i when you keep pushing me away?

i crack a joke, but you don't smile—much less acknowledge it. i ask you a question and you pretend you didn't hear me. i tell you a secret and you are so eager to spill it.

you ignore me without me giving you any reason to. you reject any kind of authority and declare yourself above it. you are quick to take the blame away from you and throw the focus onto someone else.

you don't seem to be hurting as much as i am. i guess there's only one of us who cares then.
