Sudden Distance... --IcyFire

Looking at the negatives of old photographs,
I can still see the soothing look in your eyes,
and the beauty of your smile.
Even in the dark tinting of the negative,
I am comforted by the sight of you.
This feeling is instantly replaced with sadness.
Why have we suddenly stopped talking again?
If only I could spend one more hour with you,
I would prove to you that there is more to me
than stupid comments and empty silence.

My small acts of trying are everything
compared to your silence,
and the way that you ignore me.
Honestly, Do you even care at all?
I stay up at night,
wishing we could have just one more meaningful conversation,
one more conversation at all...
Yet wishes are not meant to come true.
Our distance is something I don't think that you notice.
If you have, you obviously don't care.

I've tried everything that I could,
and the result is always the same.
I feel nothing coming from you.
The days just keep passing by,
the distance between us grows rapidly,
there is nothing that I can do now.
This is where I give up.
You don't seem to care for this at all,
it hurts,
but there is nothing I can do.
I'm giving in to this unwanted feeling,
I give up.
Are you happy now?
Either way,
my actions mean nothing to you.
Chances are,
you don't even notice this sudden change.

This poem isn't very great compared to my other ones. I really wish I could write better...I used to be able to. I'm trying to write more, but I just cannot find the words anymore. But this is basically how I feel. Sadly, I couldn't put it into any better words...I don't know what happened to my writing...

But Hey the only way to get better is to practice, huh? Thanks for reading. :)
