you used to see the better parts of me

not just the rotten flesh that i see

when i look at the glass.

i’ve been desperately searching for meaning

in all of this

but my palms keep coming up empty

and the guilt is too heavy for my small shoulders

and it’s crushing

crushing

crushing me

and i can’t breathe anymore

“Not all toxic people are cruel and uncaring. Some of them love us dearly. Many of them have good intentions. Most are simply toxic to our being simply because their needs and way of existing force us to compromise ourselves and our happiness. They aren’t inherently bad people, but they aren’t the right people for us”

— Daniell Koepke (via purplebuddhaquotes)
