In the depths of our friendship's sea, A jellyfish necklace binds you and me. Silver and pretty, it once shone bright, A token of love and shared delight. But I leaned on you, like a child in need, A caregiver's role, you didn't foresee. Guilt fills my heart, for the burden I placed, Yet I know it's not an excuse to embrace. You're the jellyfish necklace I used to wear, Beautiful and captivating, but hard to bear. For you bring out the worst in me, A love too strong, an attachment I can't see. I sought shelter in your guiding light, A refuge from darkness, day and night. But the weight I placed upon your soul, Has taken its toll, now I know. The jellyfish necklace holds secrets untold, A symbol of the roles we unfold. In my quest for solace, I caused you pain, Now I must learn to stand on my own again. You're the jellyfish necklace I used to wear, Beautiful and captivating, but hard to bear. For you bring out the worst in me, A love too strong, an attachment I can't see. Like ocean waves, our friendship sways, I must learn to mend my own broken ways. Acknowledging the wounds, seeking healing's embrace, Rebuilding our bond, through much needed space. You're the jellyfish necklace I used to wear, Beautiful and captivating, but hard to bear. For you bring out the worst in me, A love too strong, an attachment I can't see. Though scars may linger, we'll find our way, Together we'll navigate the choppy waves. No longer dependent, but intertwined, A friendship reborn, with strength we'll find.
