Self-sabotage
Self-sabotage; it’s all I know.
There is no way I am letting anybody get close.
Self-sabotage; it’s all I have got.
If you want my love then I will be sure to be gone.
Why try to love me? I can’t be loved.
Why try to like me? I have given up.
Why try to talk to me when I am mute?
Self-sabotage because I could love you.
I am a broken record who totally ignores,
Any possibility of ever being loved.
Say I am bored, when inside it burns to the core.
There is nothing in this world that is purely good.
Holding on to losing hope.
Sun still shines even when it snows.
In love with misery; happy with apathy.
So full of nothing; love being empty.

Dear A,
I have to say I totally get what you’ve written on so many levels it’s kind of scary. Your opening and closing lines are poems in and of themselves. You’ve expressed these feelings brilliantly. Sorry though I am you know these it’s a comfort to not feel alone. H🌷
