Unmoored
I just wanted to be loved, to be someone’s priority,
Yet I couldn’t feel secure around the one who brought me security.
I just wanted to be free of falsehood and trust the truth,
Yet I couldn’t see past the lies, couldn’t see past my broken youth.
I just wanted to survive by holding onto the anchor of love,
Yet my desperation destroyed the hope, the hope that I would ever be enough.
I was drowning in the pool of my own darkness and despair,
Neither could I save myself, and killed the one who tried to pull me back, tried to care.
I am still alive, inhaling the air of grief and the sufferings of yore,
I ruined the very thing that I craved, the very thing I longed for.
