I tried to love you, to love myself
You’re everything
I hate in the world
But when I felt
Your personality drip
Against my lips
Suddenly, I was dying of thirst
You’re everything
I hate in myself
The world seems
Cold and empty
There’s pain everywhere
It lingers on everything
I hear your smooth voice
In my head
Telling me that
You wish I was dead
I never want to
I tried to love you
To love the world
And myself
To turn the dark into light
But my love drowned
In heart wrenching agony
Into the deepest depths
Of a pitch black ocean

How can you love what’s terrible?
But everything’s terrible, so how can you not?

Its sad when snide jokes immediately put someone on the defense.
Especially when all they could see is a shadow. When someone never stands in the light....
