Sunken
December 13, 2016
Arms wrapped around me, fingers intertwined,
you look into my eyes,
and say everything's alright.
But all you said were lies.
I've given you chance, and chance again
to change the way you are,
but you have left me with nothing
except these ghastly scars.
I thought that maybe if you tried,
you could give me what I gave you.
Maybe if i kept you happy,
then maybe I'd be happy too.
But everything I thought was wrong,
and I guess I knew deep down,
that if I started to sink a bit,
you'd just let me drown.

Inspired by a heart break. Hopefully people can recognize a toxic relationship at the first signs, instead of waiting around for something that isn't going to happen, and to stop giving your 110% for someone who couldn't be bothered to give you 10%.
