You leech. You latch into me , drain me of. my happiness . And it only takes one second for me to fall victim to your words , to your drug.

You liar. You lie to me . It's a viscious cycle. You say it's gonna be okay , and you pull the world from under me. And show me a list of things of why it's not , in fact , going to be 'okay'

You anchor . You tie me down. I don't go places . I don't hang out with friends . I stay home , I sleep. And even though I don't hang out with my friends , doesn't mean you don't make me hang out with yours. Anxiety and fear are your besties. And you always invite them to the party.

You pain. You're hurtful and mean . You always break me down. Rip me apart. You turn me into a souless shell . You make me hurt myself . You make me numb myself with a blade . And after you make me believe it's all my fault .

Forever yours ,

Brie
