Undying Love

Why do you love me if I'm broken?

By Dylan Published 8 months ago 1 min read

What is worthy?

Why am I worth it?

I'm clearly unstable yet you label me perfect.

You tell me I'm gentle,

You show me affection,

I make you feel safe but I fear my reflection.

Am I truly the angel you perceive me to be?

Or the monstrous devil that you're failing to see?

I'm afraid of my shadow while you bathe in my shade,

How can you love me while my heart is decayed?
