Jun 2018
I stand weighed down by emotions
Chains were locked onto me that connected
Me to You
I desperately tried to find the key
In the midst of all your madness
When I found it and I was free
I realized that I felt different
Breaths seemed to escape me with ease
I could smile without it being forced
I realize now that loving you was killing me
The fabrications you told me that gave me hope
Only to shatter with the snap of your fingers
I loved you with all my heart
But I forgot to do it
With my eyes open
