You Are a Reminder

by schmetterling   Aug 22, 2019


You were everything to me.
My sun on a bright day,
and my moon guiding
me home at night.
You gave me a reason
to keep going
despite the adversities
I faced.
Unfortunately now
you are a reminder
of what I don't have,
and it destroys me.
You took away
the girl I once was
and replaced her
with someone who is weak.
My nights are now consumed
with me laying
on my bathroom floor
wishing I was dead.
I cross my skin
with a piece of silver
until all I see is red.
You abandoned me
in a time of need
like everyone else
in my life has done.
My wounds
speak volumes.
Your actions have
gotten the best of me.
