Chapter 5 - Torn apart

I tore myself apart for months,

Thinking if I changed, you'd care,

Every part of me I questioned,

Wondering if you'd even be aware.

I knew deep down what I was doing,

But never saw the damage grow,

Picked apart each quirk I had,

Hoping it was something you'd want to know.

I changed so much I lost my way,

Didn't recognize the girl I'd become,

All for you, but you never knew,

And for that, I blame only one.

I blame myself for being naive,

For thinking you'd fall for me,

But still, I cling to a hopeless hope,

That someday, somehow, you'd see.

I wish you could truly see me,

But I know that dream won't come true,

So I've forced myself to get used to it,

Because the alternative is too much to go through.

I want to go back to who I was,

Before I tore myself apart,

But now I'm in a million pieces,

With no idea where to start.
