Don't ask me what I want.
Because what I want is different from what I need.
Don't tell me to hold on,
Because I'm barely hanging off a cliff.
Don't tell me to grip tighter,
Because the rope is slipping from my fingers.
But most importantly,
Don't tell me unicorns exist
Because just a day ago,
I was waiting for my superman
to come and rescue me.
But I went home empty-handed
Soaked from rain and...
Hope. False hope.
Unfulfilled promises.
Lies.
Don't wait for your superman
Be your own wonder woman.
