“dear empathy,
please stop telling me
that it’s okay when they hurt me
stop allowing me to accept
the knife you see in their side
is a reasonable excuse
for them to put two in mine
please stop introducing me to their demons
i don’t want to shake hands
with the reasons
they can’t seem to stay
please stop waving a white flag
and making me pity their anger
and make peace with their madness”

“you are not a second choice they didn’t choose you not because you are not worthy but because they weren’t built to love you i know their arms feel like they were supposed to carry you but their lack of strength is not a testimony of the weight of your soul but rather the weakness of theirs you are not too much”
