I wish I could have a recipient
I don’t know why my love is wrong
But if just one person would let me love them
Am I just not meant to love someone?
What a cursed existence
The doves are congregating again
Why can’t I have a flock?
My mum she has her own
Everyone I know has their’s
I thought I had one for a while
Thought I was grateful
Thought I said thank you for it
When my shape didn’t fit their needs anymore I no longer had one
I know I did wrong, but I don’t think I did that wrong
I chose you, she said
I don’t think any words have come to damage me more in my life
Because it became I chose you so I can choose to not have you
That moment meant so much to me
Years later it haunts me as a memory of a fool
One misstep
One slip
And there wasn’t a way to be redeemed
Naïve
Careless
Still just a kid
Struggling with everything
I wouldn’t have abandoned me
Why am I the person I need?
Why do I have to be the one to stand beside myself?
My people
Never exist except under circumstances I can never maintain
Do you know what it’s like to constantly give everything you have, including actual money, to try to maintain connections that never stick?
Nothing sticks
I wish someone would hold my hand
Being stuck with myself is terrifying
Then again this is probably about her somehow
Not me
Nothing is ever about me
Everyone doesn’t realise they’re one misstep away from being as unimportant and invisible as I am
That I’ve been offering unconditional love to everyone all my life and they’ve all rejected it
None of the things I’ve done would have turned me away from friendships and relationships had they been done to me
Even purposely!
I’m a nitwit who’s unaware of everything I do
I’m just stupid
I have no malice
Stupid, harmless, alone
Probably the best description of me in three words.
