All you had to do was stay, but you left me.

And I'm letting you go now.

I'm letting you go because you're toxic to me.

I'm letting you go because you take and take and take

and now you're leaving me empty.

I thought it is okay and beautiful to let you plant flowers on my lungs

and now I'm picking them up; I'm letting you go

because I've realized that the flowers you've planted on me are the reason i can't breathe.

I'm letting you go because in this ocean of life, you are the anchor that keeps drowning me,

and I need to stay afloat.
