Realization

we've always left
things unsaid
and it feels like the shot spun me around
violently
hastily
like a slap in the face

never realized
somehow, we're standing here
together

i've tried to fill in
the silent, empty gaps
to the point
it grows heavy with realization

i've let the silence stretch between us
till the things we say
are those lies?

realization
cuts deeper into my knowledge
till whats left is confusion

loved you from the start
but we met halfway

halfway down the line
if we meet in the middle
i hope realization would find us there
