I don’t mean to be found unguarded I was held hid under the mask that I wanted it it’s cruel now it ruins everything I know I wasn’t invincible taken advantage of I’ve shown clarity I didn’t ask rush of emotions like I messed up it came out of my mouth words that proves what I was doing I waited more than move hoped more than resent I dread for months, not for breadcrumbs I needed clear intentions Reasons to survive I self sabotage to make it certain it is more bearable if I messed it up

Out of Character
I don’t mean to be found unguarded I was held hid under the mask that I wanted it it’s cruel now it ruins everything I know I wasn’t invincible taken advantage of I’ve shown clarity I didn’t ask rush of emotions like I messed up it came out of my mouth words that proves what I was doing I waited more than move hoped more than resent I dread for months, not for breadcrumbs I needed clear intentions Reasons to survive I self sabotage to make it certain it is more bearable if I messed it up
some last act of love maybe, it did feel like I have to tell you but it doesn’t concern you anymore
