Where were you when I needed you? I did more than ask you to stay, I pleaded you to. All you were was another broken promise. But to be honest, followed by you leaving was a certain calmness. Because telling you I loved you, felt  like choking on ***** I told you anyway, Because I just wanted you to stay. But all those White Lies, bleached my insides. It spread in strides, and when it reached my lungs It stung, I call out for help, And nobody comes. Do you know what It's like to drown in bleach? While watching everyone around you breathe? © copyrighted Nicole Ann Osborn
