feel the chain snap

you try way too hard
eyes darting in any direction to avoid

i know there's a history behind this

a history that causes fear & irritation

you're so uncomfortable in my presence

my mistakes are your most recent memories

maybe if you close your eyes

i'll be gone when you re-open them

hurry up & busy yourself

i have hit your radar & it's just a matter of time

maybe w/time you'll get tired of disliking me

will you hold your grudge ever so closely?

you have time

just none for me

no need to feel guilty in this

you're a safe person

i make you nervous

that's okay- you can't help that

maybe sometime in the future

you'll feel safe enough to engage me

you probably won't

you've made your call

i release you of any expectation i've put on you
