deep down, you’re really shallow

deceiving by speaking in good faith

our safety belongs in the embrace

of the one who drowned us in the first place

yet my light was meant to shine through

the darkness that was ignited by you

my blissful ignorance and your ending

led me to understand, I was in my beginning

I am thriving because you

tore off the bits and pieces

of myself I couldn’t carry

on this journey to my destiny
