maybe, just
maybe

it was my fault, how
i slipped into
complacency and
laziness
only to result in failure, and

maybe, just
maybe

it was my fault, how
i hurt others by
being hurt
myself
all for naught, and

maybe, just
maybe

it was my fault, how
i lost motivation and
sleep, the want to
eat
and live, and

maybe, just
maybe

it was my fault, how
i stabbed myself in the
chest over and
over
trying to hold on, and

maybe, just
maybe

it was my fault, how
i fell into conflicts within
myself clashing with
myself
no longer breathing, and

maybe, just
maybe

it was my fault, how
i was never good
enough for
you
and i couldn't try harder, and

maybe, just
maybe

it was my fault, how
i could never breathe in
and out on the cold
bathroom
floor sitting, and

maybe, just
maybe

it wasn’t
wrote this sitting in the bathroom to calm myself down during a panic attack
