Joe

​Stand far away from me
I can’t look you in the eye
Keep your distance
The disappointment disgusts
You didn’t have to be perfect
But no one told you to go ahead and be ratch
Now I must feel sorry for you
And be confused about what I’m really feeling
I know you deserve some sort of punishment
But my heart aches for the innocence I fear you will lose
Can I just hold you one more time?
Before what made you disappoint me happens
Can I stretch time or reverse it
So that I never confront these feelings
Of wanting to be so far away from you
But appreciating the fact that I’m not
And learning to love and see you
Even if sometimes you are what you should not be
Or is it, even if you do what you should not do?
