i dreamed of being so light i could just get up and float away from this dark place i had trapped myself in i did it. with it i got a brand new addiction to appetite suppressants i dreamed of getting a second chance with a man i hardly knew but liked the idea of i got it. with it i got an abusive relationship that came out of nowhere and hit like a brick to the jaw i dreamed my parents would divorce to end the hatred and yelling that constantly filled the place i didn't want to call home they did. with it i got forgotten about i wanted to love myself so i changed to fit the only version of myself i could ever pretend to love i wanted someone else to love me so i accepted that just saying it was good enough even if their actions told me otherwise i wanted to live in peace and quiet so i ignored my home, that had long been held together by my father, as it crumbled all around me i got everything i ever wanted but nothing lasts forever and nothing good lasts for very long at all when you break everything you touch and then there's nothing good left to come around i had everything i ever wanted and now i have self worth that relies solely on the number on a scale, my trust in everyone around me running on empty, and a broken home that no one that stuck around to watch the demolition of has any to desire to mend
