Poem

Whisper about me behind closed doors,

I still hear you.

Telling them.

How you wanted more than I gave then.

​

Wasn’t everything enough?

I guess not.

You won’t stop until the world stops,

for you.

​

Who’s going to take the prize?

Who’s going to stop your wandering eyes?

I wonder.

I guess I was just another number of the countless,

Trying to pull the sword from the stone and failed the test.

​

I guess I should have cheated.

​

That’s how you stayed undefeated and yeeted me out of your life without a second thought.

​

Just an afterthought.

​

I have the thought of you living rent free in my head,

Causing damage. Leaving no deposit.

Cause fuck it, it’s not your shit.

​

It’s just rented.

​

Temporary.
