"I want you,
in the best of ways.
I want to make things go as far
as possible together
for as long as possible.
I want to make
you feel safe.
I want you to
support me.
And love me hard,
kiss me when I need it.
To never hide anything
but to tell me when
something is wrong."
But you never gave me any of that.
You lied to me,
and made me dig myself much deeper.
Deeper into a whole that would start to suffocate me.
I'm a Phoenix, and I will rise from the ashes that you caused after burning me.
