Kind, but scared

Overprotective, but with good intentions

Voluntarily facing danger

Every moment, in pain

The backyard of my childhood home held the old pine trees that had whispered melodies in my ears throughout my sweet infancy. Their wise branches reached out to me with empathetic arms, holding me until I had fallen seamlessly asleep.

IZZI

I haven’t walked this way

Since you and I

began

I haven’t walked this street

I haven’t walked with my head down

Missing a version of you,

One I thought I once knew.

I fell in love, and didn’t think twice.

You were the moon to me,

Pulling me in like the sea.

It feels like a twist of fate,

I’ve been told that loving someone is never a mistake,

That loving someone who couldn’t wasn’t a waste,

That it shows how emotionally mature I am.

But it feels like my heart has stopped beating,
