Losing what I never had

The words I say to you
don't ever come out right
So I hide behind cliches
like xoxo, goodnight.

My thoughts don't translate well
to communicate to you
but you don't communicate at all
regardless of what I do

You run away from me
for reasons I don't understand
it feels like you've fallen
but you're refusing my helping hand

Like a game of hide and seek gone wrong
You stopped looking for me
But I'm hidden right in front of your eyes
and still you don't see.

You've stopped enjoying me
I don't know last time I made you smile
So I try to amuse you like i know how
but you've changed somehow; this could take a while.

It's like getting lost on a straight road
you turned into a wall
It's like learning to trust someone
but forgetting to fall.

I wish I could touch the ocean
because it connects me to you
but now, it just makes my feet wet
and I think soon my cheeks will be too.
