some people just can't be saved and some people don't want to be saved only after multiple tries did i realise you were one of them metaphorically it would seem as though i was your lifebuoy trying to keep you afloat whilst you are sinking due to the ankle weight labelled "your past" ignoring the fact that the key to release the ankle weight was in your palm since the beginning and you continue to struggle in the deep waters
