There was this boy who found me out and started talking to me. He was inspiring and loved to understand what I was making. He would comb my worlds, and would share his own. Oh how easily he found his way through the iron grip I had around the cracks in my heart. I wouldn't tell him that in less than a year I considered him my best friend.

He started to grow distant though. Far less interested in talking. I'd panic, try to catch those old feelings again and try to make new feelings too. Him and me though..we haven't even spoken more than five minutes to each other this month. We haven't talked to each other for weeks even when he's on.

I'll stare at the username and hover my cursor arrow over it. I never click it though. I just feel like I'll bother him. I feel sick because I'm shutting down again. I love it when I hope. I hate it when that hope vanishes beneath the waves of the reality in front of me. I'm shaking in my chair right now, rubbing my eyes. I'm curled up as I stare at the burning screen and at a private message.

Someone wants to talk with me. They seem so nice. I've already written out of the message back, I just haven't sent it yet. Its nice, I promise it is. Behind those nice words I'm sick and I'm tired. Tired of hoping.

If I let you too far in, you might hurt me.

I understand what it feels like.  To feel like the earth has shut you out and you can never be part of civilisation again.  Like you've lost the ability to feel happy and normal.  Feeling like no one wants to give you the time of day.  Rejection seems so much more likely when I need someone to talk to.  I've had it done to me a lot of times aswell so I know how hard it is to let someone deep down into your most private experiences and emotions.  Sometimes I feel il never be able to let someone in and show them all my scars, turning away from a broken soul rather than nurturing one back to health is an all too familiar outcome.

I was worried the story was over.  I think this is my favourite one of yours.
Also, *tighthug*  I've been where you are.  I have no answers, but I can sympathize.

This is turning out to be an even better version of "Her".
Also I hope at some point AHM gets their arm back, cause it seems like they would actually have use for it now.
