Scared Away

<You scared me away...>

I scared you away?

<*nods*>

I think not.

I believe you are scared away by fear.

Fear of me?

Fear of my intentions?

Fear of my thoughts?

Fear of conclusions?

<STOP IT>

<JUST STOP>

<Stop asking questions I don't know the answer to>

I believe you know the answer.

Everyone has an answer to everything.

["I don't know" ≈ I haven't decided]

[Silence ≈ inability to verbalize]

[Running away ≈ inability to cope]

<That is not how I see it>

["I don't know" = I don't know]

[Silence = thought before words]

[Running away = accepting defeat and moving on]

Then by your logic, I should accept defeat and run.

I cannot crack you code, for lack of better word.

But I will not run.

I'll be awaiting your return. 

Whenever you are ready, I am here.
