I Probably Deserve This

I used to say that your words were beautiful
That they could fix anything
But I was wrong

Your words were knives
Dipped in poison
Sickeningly sweet
And all too deadly
You said you’d be there
That you loved me
But you lied

Where are you now?
Why don’t you look at me anymore?
Why am I still in love with you?

Get out of my head
FOR ONCE
Stop hiding in my brain
Stop forcing me to remember
Let me forget you
Like I’ve forgotten everything else
Let me live again

You’re holding me back
Because you know I’m weak enough
You have the potential
To be the noose around my neck
The blood in my veins and the sink

I love you so much that
I hate myself for it
I hate myself more than I hate you
And I never thought that was possible

I’m not okay
I never was

This was a piece inspired by heartbreak. I hope people will read it and see something they don't want to happen to them. I hope people will learn to handle heartbreak better than I did.
