Greedy

He was my hand sanitizer,

to clean away my demons.

But I was being greedy,

and ran him over my cuts.


He was my lightbulb,

to help me see.

But I shined him too bright,

and it burned me.


He was my sweater,

to protect me from the cold.

But I wore him too much,

and he slowly formed holes.


He was my drug,

to help me get rid of the pain.

But I used him too much,

and I became addicted, it all went in vain.


He is my everything,

he completed me.

But I needed too much too be fixed,

so he left me in the dust.

God this one made me cry while writing this. I have no idea why I'm crying. Maybe it's because of the fact that I cringe every time I look at the mirror. I don't know. I am sobbing and I have no idea why...

Your Happy Duckling,
