The woman I used to be

the bare minimum was once acceptable bcus I needed affection, now I've risen past neglecting

Confusion lessening my value.

Trying to minimize my mistakes, falling deep in a lake.

There is no true satisfaction in sex, the moments don't last long enough.

I wanted to stay but you didn't show me I'm worthy enough.

Not that you define me, but I refuse to be silly about you.

I'd express I feel deeply for you and all you could say was next subject -- subtle rejection but I held on.

You'd come back and I'd allow it all just to still feel last.

O your time and control-- tired of playing the role.

Nothing is really here, it's all temporary- seem like my nightly flights prove points I can't connect.

It's getting scary, but I can't fear anything- fear is just stored pain ...

I need it away- so I wished you well and took myself away.
