this is what rejection feels like


you spend days in your head hoping
but in the end your stuck longing
for that thing you’re missing

did I mention?
those feelings of utter dejection?
missing those days of perfection

didn’t know it would end this way
destructive thoughts in my head
stuck crying in my bed

Everything becomes a trigger
crying because I know it’s your favorite song
wondering what I did wrong
