explanation

looking back over my faults and misdeeds / i see they almost
wholly fall into categories of /
omissions: i fail you by / never even bothering to show up /


looking back on times i've hurt others / its always been caused by / departure
or absence /

withdrawal from activity and communication / lessens any chance
of error or harm /
if i do nothing, i do nothing wrong / if i communicate nothing , i say
nothing wrong /
if i exchange nothing / or connect with nobody /
i can wrong nobody /

i can be safe / in my isolation
instead of pursing perfection through constructive means / i slowly
implode /
into a black hole / of avoidance /

when i shrink away from you / into tiny thoughts /  with a
tiny voice in my head /
i know /
i'll leave you questioning / but
don't question / my desire / to be good for you /
question only /
my ability to do so
