If Only

If only I’d never met you

If only I had been stronger

If only I had seen sooner

Just how abusive you are

If only I hadn’t let you

Turn my life to ruin

If only I hadn’t tried

To unmake you as the villain

If only I’d turned away quicker

As soon as you turned creep

If only I hadn’t let your hatred

Seep into my skin

If only I had seen you sooner

For the evil that you are

If only I hadn’t let you

Use me as you did

If only I didn’t know

That it was all my fault

  • Besties

    Before we bonded

    Bullies belittled me

    And it broke my heart

    Because I felt it in my bones

    But now that we belong

    With each other's beautifully 

    Breathtaking selves

    Their words don't break

  • My Depression

    Some days

    It’s hard to find

    A reason

    To get out of bed

    The depression claws

    At me

    Begging me

    To just stay there

    Sink into the darkness

    And disappear

    But I don’t want to

    Do that
