he took a screenshot and my heart took flight
Please don't remember me fondly
Remember me as the one who held your heart so softly, the one who loved you without restraint even when your love for me was a tangled mess which took years to unravel
Remember my patience and devotion as I sat at your feet, then how you crushed them under your heel
Remember me with pangs of guilt and regret when you think on your habit of assuring me I was safe with you then abandoning me once again
Don't remember me fondly, remember you killed me
Outgrowing pain, shedding it
Slithering from the dried brittle remnants
I have been imprisoned for far too long
Pieces still missing, still growing
But grow they will
I may never again be whole
But I am no longer broken
I changed my Facebook relationship status to in a relationship with Chocolate
Chocolate doesn’t forget to call or run away because it can’t handle how it feels about me
Some days I love myself. Overjoyed to help others feel useful A treasure whose bliss is creating bliss Worthy. Loveable. Hopeful.
Other days I hate myself. Overwhelmed with feeling useless A burden and toxic to everything I touch Unworthy. Unloveable. Hopeless.
Some days I wonder if I will ever get back to some days.
No matter how hard I try Or the amount of willpower I manage to summon You will always be my weakness
It’s just nice to know once in a while you’re weak for me, too
It’s dark in here Feeling my way through my feelings Like an ancient overgrown jungle labyrinth Sight stolen, hands outstretched Escape seems impossible And it only grows darker
Most of the time I don’t even know what today is Then certain dates roll around that I can’t forget
#need something to grab onto #to ground me #feeling lost #hold my hand #before i float away
