My knight(you never tried to save me)

By BeautifullyRuined

Condescending tones put the final
nail in my coffin
i`m dead inside
an empty shell do to your
selfishness
You keep omitting the facts
caring nothing of my
oppinions

You pick at flaws
that are only in your mind
cant you get past
your version of perfection
this one time

We both fell into the
wave of destruction
it crashed on both our heads
but you my love
are the only one who
woke up on the shore

I floated out into the vast
sea of depression
all alone
just like before
I have to deal with the tears
the water refuses to wash away
the sobs that rack my body
causing me to choke
on self made delusions

I gave myself long ago
to the alter of my confusion
wasted away on illusions
that did nothing
but break my mind

You catered to my fantasy
for a while
a Knight in tainted armor
sword in hand
that i later found out
was for protecting yourself
not me

You left me at the mercy
of dragons
knowing all along how
hungry they were

you should be damned
for making me suffer
Hell`s gates would gladly
open for it`s new ruler
while i lay on a bed of fire
you stand in the
midst of demons

I didnt know you ached
for acceptence
you didnt know i worshipped every
flaw in the masterpiece
that was you

    People don't realize the damage that comes with someone expecting perfection. It's particular damaging expecting perfection from a child. Great write. JD
