Incomplete

i haven't stopped

bothering you

it's not a choice I have

not a conscious decision

not my agenda

my occasional text

is not a rare sight

as you think it is

my occasional voice

isn't intended to be as it is

incomplete

i haven't stopped

thinking about you

it's not a coping mechanism

of my battered heart

you aren't small

in my frame of things

just

sometimes

i am too overwhelmed

too busy

and too bothered

and too shy

to put forth myself

in your presence

that gazing you from far

is the only road I have

to be as near to you

as the sands are

to the waves.
