Save Yourself

Go... Just, go...

It's not you,

it's me...

It's because of what romance has done to me,

that I doubt you...

It's because how both desire, and my own heart have turned against me,

that I can't trust you...

or anyone really, but‐

I promise you,

that, it's not you...

honestly,

it's me...

I want to give you everything, but‐

I can't,

because I have nothing to give

nothing good for you to receive‐

I'd say that I'm sorry, but‐

what good will that do for you?...

Go‐

save yourself...

from me‐

from becoming like me...

About the Creator

JM

Personally, writing began as a creative outlet, to be a means of processing and venting emotion, but it has become so much more. Something I want not to be just relatable, enjoyable and a good read, but to reach someone who is in need.
