to the girl who saved me

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

because you stuck your hand out 

to catch me

or because you stuck your foot out

to force me to the ground

either way

im grateful

im not falling right now

i might be soon

but you postponed my journey

you saved me for now.

    its starting to ring

    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

    butterfly?

    you had glitter

    golden as pollen

    falling to the floor

    feeding no one

    you’re wasting yourself

    now all you feel

    is emptiness
