before i met you i was a mess
i didnt shower
i never woke up
when i did it was few and far in between the day
i was worthless before you
you supported me
and loved me
and told me it was okay to live
it was fine to see tomorrow
every day at 7 am you make me a little bit happier
but i was fool drunk in love with the feelings of joy
i used you and forgot about you
you as the one who helped me brush my hair
the one who told me to wash that shirt before wearing it
lexapro you are sly,
and i
overconfident
i thought it was me
i thought i was making me happy
so i put you aside to start my new and improved life
day by day you took what was yours
for a week
you took everything i thought was mine
you took my laughter
you took my time
you took my energy to get up
slowly for a week i returned to an empty husk that had no meaning
while laying, crying, and wondering why i should breath i remembered you
and i knew
my happiness was not mine but yours
you were the one who gave it to me
so you were the one to take it back
you showed me who was in charge
i held no part in making myself happy
except when
i take you out the bottle
