Dependency
February 22, 2022
Being around you isn’t good for me
And I need to realize that soon
Because despite whatever empty words you muttered
Hollow promises said
In a time of dependency
In my weakness
You aren’t here
And I don’t want you
But somehow I still miss you
And I need to get that out of my head
Because the part of you I miss
My idealized version of you
Made up of memories of a better time
Is slowly killing me
