For whatever I am,
And whatever I,
May ever be,
In this lifetime and the next,
I'm forever yours!

Past regrets lost in an emulsion of sorrows
Paralyzed to the point of leaving yourself behind because of these dastard individuals who you call stress, anxiety and depression
However theres a fraction of an enigma that still exists within me
The fans of reality blows and steers possibilities and likelihoods towards my life
Such a thing as nepenthe doses seem relevant and present in the world?
Contrary to my uncertainty, society could believe it does in various shapes or forms
Although, our constant search for content proves a sort of doubt
Trapping beautiful leaves with different colors in a jar never to be experienced but hopefully found by a wanderer who would demonstrate what a prize they were in the first place
Negligence ultimately derived from perpetual speculation
Build, construct your house of memories as vivid and as sorrowful as they come
They are yours!
An identity, defining who you are without all the torment
Escape the wrath of your past regrets, mistakes and insecurities
You can, if you allow yourself to

My life;
As I knew it;
Has changed.

My doubts;
And questions;
You erased.

Now I'm all yours;
Everything I am;
Belongs to you.
Thanks for reading.

“If I didn’t force you to do it you wouldn’t have gotten these medals”
If you didn’t force me to do it I wouldn’t have gotten these medals

“These aren’t accomplishments”
These aren’t accomplishments

“You don’t have any accomplishments”
I don’t have any accomplishments

“If it weren’t for me, you would have nothing”
If it weren’t for you, I would have nothing

“You should thank me”
I should thank you

No

If you didn’t force me to do it, I wouldn’t have done it
But I did do it
And those medals are mine
My accomplishments
I don’t care if 4th place isn’t good enough for you
I don’t care if you don’t think they’re accomplishments
Because I know they are
They are mine
Not yours

And maybe I should thank you
For making me realize
I don’t need your approval

Maybe I should thank you
For making me realize
I was being brainwashed
To think I’m worthless

Because now I know

i'm looking at you
after all of the damage has already been done
it's been months now
but i still can't manage to not look for you
in crowded rooms
i tell myself
you aren't mine
and i'm not yours
i am mine
and you are yours

i look at you and dare to utter
"i'm not yours anymore."
so you stifle a laugh and say
"you're always gonna be mine. at least a little bit."
i realized then
that was what i had been afraid of
the whole time
because i knew
you were right

You
the gaze you wear
a gentle stare
kindness and love
All of the above
I'm yours.

You
I waited a while
for a wholesome smile
took days and years
but now you're here
I'm yours.

You
those earnest ears,
our dreams and fears
Started with harmless flirting
now? never more certain
I'm yours.

You
to start I was weary
the Past has been scary
We gave it a chance
and you make my soul dance
I'm yours.

You
two hearts that need feeding
no longer bleeding
now sing a sweet song
where they belong
I'm yours.

You
We're now planting seeds
and that's all we need
On our way
day by day
I'm yours.

And when I wake
to the many thoughts
in the dark of night
your name brings
light to my eyes
