It breaks my heart knowing I did such things
For people who couldn't do the same thing for me
Popularity, toxic friends and insecurities
They hunted me like I was cursed
Lost in a world were I kept running
A journey where I didn't know where it would lead me to
Until love fall onto my lap
I looked for it desperately in the wrong places
I chose the wrong path
Tragedy exploded with pain
I even forgot how to love myself
Yet I let people drown me in toxic love
As my wounds turned into scars
Reminding me of my abusive past
Fear, toxicity and abuse disguise as love
Confused and lost
Pain struck me like lightning bolts
As I was silenced by this "love"
No one heard my painful screams
As salty tears rained heavily onto my lap
Looking back at the wrong path taught me a painful life lesson
But I kept running hoping for the best
The golden path kept on getting further and further
As I tried to reach it
Until I stopped as I'm stuck again
My heart thumps hard as oxygen fills my lungs
My resting day has finally arrived
Setting my life properly
Leaving those who drowned me in toxicity
Smiling knowing I chose the right decision
As it felt delightful
I learned so many things from that life lesson
And this is one of them
"Stop looking for things you need in people when you can better yourself for the future."
