i was hooked
obsessed
for years
you were
my escape
my life
you helped
me
become visible
feel alive
valid
am i
invalid?
the last
time i saw
you
you
told me
it was all
a lie
i was the fish
hooked
stabbed
through the
mouth
bait
for attention
from everyone
else
a crown
making you
feel seen
and in turn
i am not
no one
notices the
fish
so maybe
i am
invisible
maybe
i have been
all along.
its starting to ring
the noise in my head
telling me im feeling
something i didn't know
i was capable of.
its getting louder
the sirens
the warning
i dont have a chance
at surviving
you dont know how close
i was to falling
to plumetting
neither do i
you came along
i cant tell
if you made things easier
or ten times more difficult
i cant tell
if i only tripped a little
you had glitter
spilling out of your mouth
fine as stardust
golden as pollen
falling to the floor
feeding no one
you’re wasting yourself
now all you feel
is emptiness
