how can i?

we barely communicate
because that's how you want it
but i think of you everyday
do you think it's easy for me
to act like i'm not breaking
when what you are asking
is for me to disconnect from you?
i crumple the letters
that i want to send
i swallow the i love yous
that i want to say
can i drown
my heart's whispered poetry
at the mention of your name?
or unteach my mind
not to skip to
the music of your memories?
you think it's easy
to fight off what i feel
how do you expect me to not love you
when i do?
