✦✦✦

looking in the mirror —
wishing i could break these shards,
to see my insides clearer.

the pain in my eyes,
and like a child,
i watch my reflection,
as it cries.

i recall those words,
"they're lies."

but that's not true.

my stomach churns and my heart divides,
i feel my gut wrench and murder my insides.

you can't preach about life once your souls dies.

i thought i could mend myself with you.
and i thought that's what you wanted, too.

but your intentions were never true.

if only life had a redo —
i would have ended it with you.
