Navigating Emotional Distance: A Reflection on Vulnerability

Lyrics

I'm drunk in your arms again,

I am intoxicated while being embraced by you.

You hide behind laughing it off

You pretend to be carefree and hide behind laughter, despite the difficulty of the situation.

Like this wasn't hard enough.

This situation is already challenging, and your demeanor suggests it's even more difficult.

You're holding the aching in,

You are containing the pain or emotional distress within yourself.

This space is a deafening sound,

The silence or emptiness in the space around us is overwhelming.

Too heavy to say out loud.

Expressing the emotions is too burdensome to articulate verbally.


Next time around,

Referring to a future occasion,

We'll sit in the garden

We will be together in a serene setting,

Laughter around us

Surrounded by laughter,

Hands in the dirt.

Engaged in simple, grounding activities like gardening with hands in the dirt.

Next time around,

Anticipating another opportunity in the future,

I'll share what you're holding

I will open up and share what you are keeping inside,

Keep our lines open

We will maintain open communication and share in each other's pain.

Share in your hurt.


Ignoring my calls again,

You are intentionally avoiding answering my calls,

I know why you're not answering me now. Is it easier somehow?

I understand the reason behind your silence, questioning if it brings comfort in any way.

Too much in your head again

Your thoughts are overwhelming you once again,

It's not me who needs sheltering now, Please don't push me out.

I am not the one who needs protection now; please don't shut me out.


Next time around,

Envisioning a future moment,

We'll sit in the garden

We will share a peaceful time in a garden,

Laughter around us

Surrounded by joyous laughter and engaged in gardening activities.

Hands in the dirt.

Anticipating another opportunity in the future,

Next time around,

I will open up and share what you are keeping inside,

I'll share what you're holding

We will maintain open communication and share in each other's pain.

Keep our lines open
