Dumpster Fire

In a mood right now

If I spiral out of control this time,

And my dumpster fire cannot be contained,

Please know if I said I loved you I meant it genuinely,

I was just consumed in my own flames.

I was there as much as I could be,

I showed up as many times as I could,

I listened as intently as possible,

I gave more of myself than I should.

A life without limits,

Means without boundaries as well.

I played the hand I was dealt

And just miserably failed.

I was here but no one really saw me

At least that’s how it feels

I never really felt appreciated

And my poor little spirit it killed.

In the world where you desire to be chosen

I’m not a goose, I’m a duck.

And quite honestly, I don’t know why I bothered even writing this

It’s not like anyone even gives a fuck…
