This one is almost funny.

You once tried to “punish” my unpredictable behavior with silence, and back then, it didn’t really work on me. I stayed busy. Distracted myself. When I leave situations, I emotionally shut down. It’s how I avoid processing things too fast. So it looked like I was fine.

But the truth? I wasn’t feeling it the way I should have. but now it’s different.

Now I think if you ever tried silence again, it would undo me. Because there is no rejection heavier than the one that comes from the person you love. That kind of quiet would echo too much.

So please… don’t do that to me My glassy heart is in your hands now. Handle it gently.
