I spent days as a hollow shell
Sorting through my memories
Search for answers I could not see
I spent weeks in a bath of my own tears
Lost in endless backwards thoughts
Questioning everything I’d ever done
I spent months piecing myself back together
Finding beauty in a broken mess
I found a woman stronger than she ever knew she could ever be
I once believed that I did something wrong
That I deserved what I had coming
When you cut my heart open and drowned me in a sea of lover’s tears
They say love is blind and you blinded me
But my eyes were opened to the truth
You could never have loved me for me.
