I counted on you.
I trusted you.
I was drowning,
and you were there.
I was holding on for dear life,
and you held out your hand.
You were my reason to live.
You.
Nobody else,
but you.
Without you,
I probably wouldn't be here.
You were my safety net.
You were my reason
to live.
You.
That was all you.
I had no idea how I
would be able to live
without you by my side.
I couldn't even imagine
a life
without you in it.
Yet,
here I am,
living..
breathing..
without you by my side.
After hurting for so long,
I can finally see
the light.
I can finally see
who you were,
deep inside.
Without you,
I probably wouldn't be as
mentally harmed
as I am today.
You weren't my safety net;
you were my reason
to escape from the truth.
You;
that was all you,
all fucking you.
Not me.
You.
Without you,
I felt like a million pounds
had been lifted off my back.
Without you,
I found the peace
I needed to keep on going.
I thought I could
count on you.
I thought I could
put my trust in you.
I was drowning,
and you were the only one
available to reach for my hand.
You weren't my reason to live;
you were my escape route.
So,
I guess this is
goodbye.
