Altered Dynamic

Silence fills the gap.
Within arms' reach,
But the distance feels like miles.
The room feels slightly chill,
Though you used to bring it warmth.
You didn't hurt me,
But your action switched the dynamic.
I don't know what you are,
Or if I even want to know.
Things were altered
Feelings changed--No, disappeared. 
Remedy looks out of reach,
I've turned my back.
