I truly wish that
I could’ve been more
Than a mere insignificant being
You wouldn’t even blink an eye for
Or perhaps I wish that
I could’ve been more
Of a human you could
Bring yourself to love a little more
These thoughts inch
and poke away
At the foundation
I’ve built my sanity on
Especially more so
on these lonely nights
Where I sometimes think
I’m stronger than I am
But then think maybe
I’m less that I thought
And then I wish
I was more than just this
But why would it even matter?
When all I’m capable of is
having you face your back against me
And I’m nothing more than
a hollow shell of
the woman I used to be
And you’re nothing more than
the hollow shell of
the man I used to love
And yet despite all of that,
I still ******* do.
