upliftings

you were my favorite ending

our story was toxic

& I was dying slowly with you

...in silence

I was drowning,

& no one even noticed

no one but myself

I was blinded by lust

you turned me harsh where I was once soft

you made me cold & cruel

you turned my edges jagged

you were like an addiction...

terrible,

but almost impossible to break free from

but I lifted myself up

& I grew flowers where you left cracks

you became my favorite ending

& as for you...

I will always be the one that got away

heres to upliftings
