I Can't Be Fixed

by Maria   May 10, 2013


Even though you always reassure me

it won't happen,

I'm scared.

No, I'm terrified that one day,

you'll finally have enough of all this:

the sadness, the insecurities, the flaws,

the depression, the fights,

the suicidal thoughts that persist,

and you'll understand how much more

you deserve.

And when you do, you'll leave

to find someone better,

someone who's less depressed

and I'll be alone again.

But what hurts me the most is,

that I will not even be able

to blame you for giving up on me

because I gave up on myself

a long time ago.
