All of you were my whole existence
My lifeline – my sanity
You didn’t know my inner world
I may have spoken of dancing
Wanting to stand on mountain tops
You put me high on a golden pedestal
“You can do anything!” you said with admiration
I wasn’t the one you believed me to be
I wasn’t your savior or your superhero
Inside my fears were magnifying
Like a bubble that would burst
A ticking time bomb
Nothing to hold on to
Rolling down hill
Faster and faster
Scratches, cuts and bruises
Black and blue
Broken bones
Mutilated
Inside and out
Desperation
Insanity
F
E
A
R
I was never coming back
but I am still here
Again
…terrified you won’t like me anymore…
