It's all over
And I'm here again
those 5 months of complete sorrow and helplessness
A need to prove myself
just to get stabbed in the chest by those 3 painful words
"You messed up"
Was it really my fault for giving my everything and still not being good enough?
Or am I destined to suffer in every walk?
My mom says that God puts me in these situations because I'm strong
But maybe, I'm not strong enough to make it through it all
Maybe life was better when the only thing I was worrying about was Academic pressure
Now it's almost morning but I'm out here wondering where did I go wrong?
Certainly I wouldn't have made it even if I gave my everything
So should I leave it as it is
Leave my dream behind
or should I step into the war again
I will keep wondering why
I will keep wondering why

It's funny to think that it has come to this again
Me recalling your name and all your memories rushing back into my head again
Its funny how all this time I hated every inch of your existence
But could really one small conversation about you
Bring all those thoughts back
I miss those nights with just you and i alive
You staring lovingly into my eye and I blushing as your eyes gazed upon me
Filled with lies
You demanded closure from me
For why I left you behind
But weren't you the one who said
There was no such thing left to compliment
In my life
Its like i have travelled 278 days back
When I was crying if I was the fault all along
Whether if I was prettier, smarter and cooler
I'd be everything to you
Just like I was in those 2 months of lifetime
But as I'm writing this I just realised
That you're no longer in my life
And I shall resume you not being in my mind.

Maybe flowers were created to teach us that
Beautiful things don't last forever.

Called by so many names
Who knew "mediocre" was the real one.

I can't have piercings or tattoos because I'm scared of having something permanent in my life.
It's not about piercings or tattoos.

I have the tendency to leave
I get too overwhelmed often, my mind
stops working and all i see is darkness in front of my eyes
As I somehow make the best and worst decisions of my life at the same time
Ok fine I spit fire from my mouth everytime someone triggers me
But have you ever really tried to understand what made me like this?
All I can do is try and try to make everyone understand
But it's always the person's fault who made the other one cry
I may sound like a narcissist, But would you really put up with someone's ****, after tolerating it a million freaking times?
Just because I get the last word, How is it my fault?
How did everyone foreshadow all the moments of forgiveness and empathy that I expressed
But it's always my fault, my fault for putting up with people and their *******
And yeah I'm ******* selfish if that means that I can protect myself from something that alters my peace
I'm also aware about the fact that I'm just gaslighting myself too, as they say I do to everyone
But God, would you ever look at it from my point of view?
Years of living in the shadow of people who ridiculed and bullied me
How could you expect that person to not respond to even the threat of something like this?
But it's always my fault
I'm sorry it's my fault for even existing
Because every good thing i do is forgotten
And every bad thing that I do Is thrown at my face every single day.
More like a rant than a poem but yes.

I'm afraid to talk to people
I'm afraid they will judge me
I'm scared of even the thought of somebody getting to know me
For they shall leave too, if they saw what's hidden beneath me
I joke and whine about how everyone is missing out on me
But all i know is that my anxiety is depriving me
When that one friend is busy
I realise what a poor pathetic fool im
To barely have 2 people to count on
When i have lived in this city, most of my life
I'm not an angel, for all i know
Abandoning and leaving gets the best of me
For i tend to fall apart at various times
And hurt the ones who know me
So maybe i'm better off alone
Than with a person who is destined to leave me.
