I know, I have to let you go

(you’re killing me)

[wearemadeofgoodbyes]

you fed yourself lies and regurgitated it to me as your truth... and you called it “honesty”.

this is an excerpt from my poem, Phoenix, which was published with @germmagazine back in 2017. I’ve always rather liked these lines — they sum up how I felt about the situation pretty accurately. are you grateful to have known people with potential for more, or do you regret it? start discourse in the comments, I live for over sharing.⁣ ⁣ in case you missed it: my chapbook, Cavity, is ONLY going to be available for the rest of the month!!! after that it’s never being printed again!!! link is in my bio if you’d like to order one before that🦷💜⁣ ⁣ ⁣ #poetry #phoenix #poemsofinstagram #poetryofinstagram #allthebrightplaces #purple #poem #poetryquotes #poetrycommunity #heartbreakquote https://www.instagram.com/p/BxgRAUZlILp/?igshid=wozqv5h0w1om

I'm addicted to breaking hearts. Especially my own.

[kiramalibu]

I am more broken than I appear I do not believe in fairytales and happy endings and I am scared of what will happen when I finally have to face my fears and grow up but everyday I try, as the days go by, to love myself

I'm not going to compare you to a garden or a sunset because you were never just something pretty to look at, you were the blood that ran through my veins, you kept me alive.

You always told me “you shine so bright”

so why

did you take my light?

[devouringdespair]

I let you listen to my favourite song

hoping you would read between the lines

but the only thing you could say was “I fucking hate it, it’s not even fine”;
