Silence was always the thing I wanted most
It was pleasant
Calming
Now even when it's silent
It isn't
My head is too far gone
They never shut up
It's always so loud
They mock me
I mock me
I can't breathe or relax
I can't focus
I can't do anything
Ironic with how much I used to care
I'm heavy
I'm tired
I'm done
I don't know who I am
I don't want to be here
I want it to stop
Please make it stop
I can't take it anymore
Just SHUT UP
PLEASE
PLEASE
PLEASE
LEAVE ME BE
LEAVE ME ALONE
I GET IT
I GET IT
I'M TERRIBLE
I'M
I'm..
Nothing
He's gone
They're all gone
No one's home...
Hah home
Am i home?
Yes
You keep telling me to let go
When the ones who care say the opposite
But do they actually care?
I don't know
I..
You'll be just as selfish as they are
...I know
So I can't
I have to stay
Why
Because...
There has to be more than this? Right?
I can't wallow in this pain forever
Will I?
I
I won't
I refuse
After everything, do I just lay down and die?
FUCK THAT
I deserved better
They deserved better
All of them
We didn't choose them, we didn't choose to love them
But we did and still do
And they all left
One after the other
They might've been poison but I chose to drink it
So was it really their faults?
Here we go again
Of course it was
But at a certain point the blame falls on me
Toxic as he was, I loved him, I willingly
Unconditionally loved
What's so wrong about that?
Even though he did all he did
Then left
Why should I suffer?
Why should I?
He had always been there, him leaving
Being the ultimate betrayal
But was he really there?
Sure he was there physically
But for when I needed him
Or when it counted
Was he?
No
Simply being there isn't being there
Taking a title just because biologically its yours
Doesn't mean you are that title
It's earned
And you never said a word that day
So why should you have a title you never deserved?
Simple.
You don't
I'm taking the power back
Through all the fear and intimidation
All the shouts and the tears
And the hazy memories of when you could've been good to me
It's mine
You were the one who was nothing
I blamed myself for your actions
No more
I deserve to be more than nothing
I hope you enjoy being alone,
After all, it's what you wanted.
May I see you in hell
One day
Congrats D.
