I stare up at the moon letting my tears flow freely down my face. I thought about the events of the day and feel an invisible band squeeze around my heart. I never realized that loving you would be so painful; more so since I have never once told you those three little words. I never uttered them because I knew you had already dealt with a lot from your ex. I don't want to push you for more but with each passing second I end up hurting myself even more. I don't want to lose you and I don't care if we are dating. I just want to be able to say you are mine. But as time passes by and words are left unsaid I don't know if I am going to survive. I reread the texts you sent me and I wish I hadn't even asked you anything about our relationship. I wish I could turn back the clock and return to the happy bliss we had. Now all we have is uncomfortable silence and I am left feeling hollow inside. I know if I tell you my true feelings that it would make the situation even worse so I keep silent. The silence stretches between us like an abyss and all I want to do is hold you close but you seem farther away. I shut myself up inside and wait for you to make your move in this heartbreaking game of emotional chess.
