What happened to you


Asking myself What happened to me

they're quick to criticize
and I'm quick to leave

but lately I've been down

begging them please 

send me some peace ☮️ 
I'd give my all 
but slip up

and now I am not what they need 

trying to heal bc I cannot believe

they'll bring you down just for the feed
Energy been low, I think I should grieve 

keeping my heart to myself 

patching up where it still bleeds 

what happened to you?

artsy and determined 

Got too much to lose

tea is for drinking idc for the brew

they say you acting new

what was I supposed to do

be the same 

I'm nothing like you 

unlearning some habits 

to get back my mental 

They'll bite your hand and play it accidental

packing it up
