I once sent a picture saying “I am scared of you”

Although I’ve never stated this but I’m scared of the power you wield over me

Living in this nice delusional world is beautiful and all

But

When reality sets in I’ll be the biggest loser

I am not afraid to lose, I am ready to risk it all

But

What I fear is the despondent state this will leave me
Untouched yet unfit for anyone else

I can bounce back from anything

But

I can’t bounce back from you

This is why I hide from you
Give this poetry a name in the comment

I spake fruitful words
Took sincerity to what I might call home
But they bounced off walls

Held here all alone feeling loom
Did I endanger our fate
Did you play me all along

Did I lose faith
Where did it go wrong
I adored you; wait, I worshipped you
You were my god

You are always going to be you
I sit here searching for the good
But drowned in the misery

I sat on top of the world; everyone knew my name
Now I try to find my way back, all I know is shame

My cars; crashed into parties, everyone wanted to be in my fancy wear
Why didn’t I look up investing and insuring; now I don’t mind if its rag, please just give me something to wear

My name was held in high esteem, white line called to me from Whitney’s rear
She never came back for me, but watched as I derail

Day and Night, I looked up to Whiskey, it became my religion
Now at the altar in search of salvation from the true religion

You told me yourself that “little things to you matter”
Being around you I’ve unconsciously adapted that feeling when it comes to you.
You say these things and the side of my brain that usually never gets what it wants is being feed.
Building emotions on the words you say
Building emotions on originally empty words
You don’t do drugs but you parade it around an addict .
You are very aware I’m trying to dispose of my feelings for you.
Seeing you the way you see me
But you make it difficult every time you call out with “psst”
I don’t want to lose you, that is one awful big mistake.
I hope you get past your shyness and let me in
Or maybe... maybe you are just afraid you might lose me when you really open up on how you really feel.
I really wish you’ll stop playing games even when deep down I feel you enjoy it.
So talk to me or make my coping mechanism easy for me

Lost in my sanctuary
Might make it out eventually

Is this my reality ?
And my imagination is becoming a frivolity?

Questioning the existence of life that surrounds me
Rather I’m the one without life in me

Lost lost lost lust lust lust
In an island filled with unhealthy lust

I’m nothing but an instrument to make you feel good about yourself
I’m nothing but a tool to make you feel powerful about your look

I’m nothing and the scenery is vague to you  
I’m nothing but I see us clearly

Huge impossibilities
Left daydreaming

I probably need an unraveller
But I push them away cause I’m nothing

I’m nothing but I enjoy this sickly state
I know I’m nothing and I still want to be here
