Setting you free

Bright eyes

Concealed tears

White lies

Crawling fears


Please leave me on the streets to die

Please kick me to the curbs to cry

I can't do this anymore, playing pretend

My soul is broken, there is no mend


You don't have to put up with me

I'm letting you leave, setting you free

I promise not to hold you back anymore

Now go enjoy your life, here's the door


I'm just a failure, nothing more here

I'm just stormy skies that'll never clear

I can't disappoint you any longer

I know you'll find someone stronger

 I'm fortunate enough to have some extremely loving and kind friends in my life. During my darkest days, they stay by me, never asking for anything in return. But, in such times, a fear crawls into my heart. What if I'm holding them back? What if they don't want to stay by my side but I'm unknowingly forcing my burden on them? What if  I'm only a waste of their time, what if it's best if I'm not in their lives? It's true, without them in my life, I would be devastated, but perhaps, it's them I should I be thinking about.
