jennifer,

  perhaps the time spent at a distance

rekindles all that i felt,

  i don't know, and

i promise nothing, except that

  i'll try to be, and bend as i can

try to keep my fears, under wraps.

  it's raining today, but nothing

can bring me down.

[talking to you last night was nice]

  the comment you left at post

reminds me most, of the way

  you may have felt,

when i left you no other choice,

  black back drop, words in red

and i deserved it, yeah, i did.

  to want what one wants and not have it

well, that kills.

  but i need you as a friend,

as inspiration, as whatever my heart demands,

  that i ask of or lean, when i am weak.

when i'll break just to breathe,

  the breath you give me

when i feel you caring.

  yet, in doing my best, to cut loose

with my face, and my heart, still attached

  to me, to my sleeve,

that was wrong of me, yet,

  a person does, what they must.

right?

  i just know that i have thought of you,

always fond of you, i remain me

  yet strangely void, of something.

i mean, who would invoke me now?

  and even as i read your words, the comment you left

in response to Amber., i knew, i would have to

  give back, more than i would feel to offer.

jennifer, although i was mean, and the things that i said

  i read them again and again, i have to defend,

all that i am, i built a defense, to protect me from you,

  because i would have let you make me vulnerable,

yet, no one does something they dont want to...right?

  now im confused.

yet what i feel and felt for you, i still feel, true

  but i had to make things small to be hidden

small to forget them.

  remind me. please.

sharing with you, makes me...that brilliant soul,

  and i would have you.

you must know.

you must.
