My mind drifts back
Only months ago,
Yet they feel like years.
Days where i would say i love you
While my world was continuously falling,
Where my migraines kept coming,
And my home crumbling.
I would come to you,
Just for the small distractions,
And i believed we did truly love one another.
But in the chaos i found myself in,
I never realized how destroyed I felt at the same time.
My body did not even feel like it belonged to me anymore,
It was only for you.
Even if it was hurting me.
My opinions silenced while
The accusatory finger was raised to me.
For months my mind has been screaming,
Clawing at me asking if it was right to leave you.
How could i possibly hurt someone that loves me the way you did?
But then someone came along,
They spoke words that
Made me feel like it would be okay.
It was validating,
And i was no longer alone
And trapped in my own head.
It was like they could read my mind.
Now it's all silent.
And i can breath again.

Poetry ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
PoetryI've been writing since middle school as a way to convey how I felt. I've kept these in an old composition book that I still keep by me about 10 years later. I suppose it's time to share and hope maybe it will help someone out there.
