You Vs Me
Heart Breaking
Tear Inducing
My world stopped when you left
Sleepless Nights
Numb Feelings
I couldn’t pick myself back up
I wanted to forget
I wanted to stop existing
All together
I thought I grew up when you broke
Me
Then it hit
Me
How incredibly toxic
You were
How abusive and manipulative
You were
I clung, begged, and groveled
For something that wasn’t good
For Me
But who gave up on us?
Who refused to fix it?
You
I’ve learned
I’ve realized
And I’ve changed
I didn’t grow up when you hurt
Me
I grew when I realized
Who I was
How much my worth was
I grew up when I got over
You
And focused more on
Me
