Unexpected tears flow
As I am forced to take a good look at me
No longer able to hide under a veil of ignorance
Or between the lines of poetry
My heart weakened and bruised
My mind collapsed under confusion
I’m left with no choice but to weep
As I come to the this conclusion
I am mourning me
A part of me has died
Despite the fact this happened months ago
For its passing I never cried
I dug a hole into your heart
And buried myself deep within
Not fully realizing
That while hiding inside of you
My healing would cease to begin
So I’m giving you formal notice
I am vacating the security of your embrace
As I have grown I realized it had reached max occupancy
And for rebirth I need my own space
Before I could rebuild I had to take inventory
See what had been destroyed
No longer will I live life at half staff
Or pretend I’m not when I am annoyed
Countless sources dictate to me that love is sacrifice
Of this I strongly believe
But I refuse to be trapped in a love
Where the sacrifice begins and ends with me
