Five Days

and still no word. What, if anything, I did wrong (besides being shy), I am still not sure. But my messages to her are returned with silence. This silence is punishing, whether she intends it as such or not. Normally a silence between she and I would not quake me so. This time I fear I have gone too far, or perhaps I didn't go far enough.

I ache for her and still no response. I'm sure she doesn't know. I know she doesn't know...

She has to know.
