I am afraid. I fear myself. I get drenched in the rain not because I seek peace, because I punish myself for being who I am. I instil myself in people’s minds. I don’t intend to. But sometimes, I could use a friend. They cry. They fear me. So much that they themselves leave their lovers.
They befriend me.
How do I tell them, that I am not the religion that will prosper but would leave them stranded in despair?
They mistake me for solitude. How do I take off that mask? How do I tell them that my fate was meant to be the monster that let self-doubt form its own nest?
How do I tell them that I am the tears they weep on their pillows, when they flung their phones across their rooms?
I confess today. I am the pain that a lover feels when they pull their hair in anger.
I confess today. I am the night that nobody wants.
I confess today. I apologise for who I am.
But if I did have a choice to be someone else, I wouldn’t miss a chance.
I want Love, but She is a far-fetched dream.
I am assured of one thing.
When a lover marks his own grave because of me, She will show up with poppies and weep sacred tears.
I will win that day.
Love and I, weren’t meant to be together in any realm, but if it means sacrificing a lover and seeing her, I will leave no stone unturned.
Yours Unfaithfully,
Abandonment.
"she's the type of girl that has a place in her heart for all the lonely people to go with their forgotten footprints in the snow" by Courtney Peppernell, from "Pillow Thoughts"
