Anhedonia

by Pyrrha

I used to gaze at the clouds all day long I used to love to dance in the rain I used to love the sunshine on my skin now I never go outside I just watch as passion seeps from my life I used to walk on eggshells for you I never let them crack or make a sound I used to stand on a pedestal with you despite my fear of heights but what did you ever sacrifice for me? I'm not the same as I once was the smiles that I wore have all gone out of season and expired but out of all the things that I have loved and lost you are the one goodbye I don't regret Keep your pedestal I'm building myself a shrine A person like me Was meant to be worshipped
