For a Kiwi

Now that the distance is set
I wonder if you wonder
I wonder,
Do you think about me too?

The weakness that I feel
I wonder if you wonder
I wonder,
Do you feel weakness too?

You are always happy and smiling
I wonder if you wonder
I wonder,
Do you imagine me happy and smiling too?

Someone let the distance grow
I wonder if you wonder
I wonder,
Have you noticed it too?

When it's time to point the finger
I wonder if you wonder
I wonder,
Will you point it at me too?

Feeling like the pain is overwhelming
I wonder if you wonder
I wonder,
Do you want to hurt me too?

Dealing with a fear of being unsatisfactory
I wonder if you wonder
I wonder
Do you think me unsatisfactory too?

Staring at you in awe and admiration
I wonder if you wonder
I wonder,
Do you feel admiration for me too?

Pride is seldom felt, but when it is
I wonder if you wonder
I wonder,
Are you proud of me too?

This damage feels irreparable
I wonder if you wonder
I wonder
Did you feel the breaking too?

Over-thinking can lead to one's downfall
I wonder if you wonder
I wonder,
Do you believe me crazy too?

When I wonder who you've become
I wonder if you wonder
I wonder,
Do you think you've lost me too?

When I look back at what we once were
I wonder if you wonder
I wonder,
Do you feel like crying too?
