i wish i didn't remember the way you towered over me,

how you could easily make me believe that i was the most terrible person who'm ever existed.

but part of me wishes that i did remember the other part of that night, 

the part I've tried to summon over and over in my head-

even if i become more damaged. 

I've always been a

seeker of truth, and i'm not sure if that's from you or really just

my soul wanting something to cling onto-

now that I've grown and got away i realize that you were the person who i should of never been afraid of

that you were meant to support me in more ways than one,

i always end up asking myself-

when

the sky devours the sun-

whether or not it was truly me who caused all of this,

a splinter intruding me, and as i get it out the pain is still consistent,

learning to heal on my own terms.
