Apologies

For Thinking Too Much

By Mercedes ChavezPublished 2 years ago • 1 min read

I'm sorry...

I'm sorry I overthink

I'm sorry my mind is quick to think the worst

I'm sorry it bugs you

I promise I try not to

But it's worse when I feel you pull away

When I think a distance has suddenly grown between us

When you barely speak to me

You hardly respond back

And when you do

You keep it to only a few words

I don't want to be a bother

I tell myself I won't reach out unless you do first

But you're my favorite person to talk to

So, there's a sadness when I don't hear from you

But I will remain in my silence

Not concerning you with my childish worries
