my world turned you into a shadow

by Olivia Weinkein

i fed you from my hands.
i sold you the lies i would someday
need you to feed to me.

i connected your dots,
crossed your t's, hoping that eventually
you would be enough to please me.

i know this song, i've heard it before
this movie, the way the story
goes.

you will never be enough
because you were created by me
when i was lost
without
him.

i don't even know you.

what was your name again?

I am ALWAYS so impressed with your writing. All your heartaches, all the good times and not so good... even this relationship, as a shadow... just so in awe of your expression. Heal my dear and keep writing! ~N
