The Death Of Whom I Used To Be
_(Sry for not posting, I had a recital and I was very tired after. I have been very… angsty recently, so here is a sort of angsty story. Hope you have a great day and happy pride!)_

Rest in peace
To the
Young child
I used to be.
For your
Soul is
Long gone.
Now, we
Mourn the
Death of
You,
A child who
Never got
To be,
Because
You were
Forced to
Grow up
When you were
Just a little pea.
I’m sorry I
Was neglectful
Of your
Sweet young mind.
I’m sorry for
All you had to
See
Because you
Were
Just a little pea.
I hold you
In my sorrowful
Heart knowing
You are gone.
I miss your
Sweet young innocence
For now I am
Stuck
With a mind
I try to escape.
Maybe, if I didn’t
Kill you
So soon,
I could have preserved
Your smile.
I miss you
Forever and always.
