You Lost Me

You lost me slowly.

Not in one fight.

Not in one lie.

 

But in the repeated moments

where I needed honesty and

received excuses instead.

 

I kept fixing things you broke,

including parts of myself.

I carried the weight of us while

you acted like love alone was

enough to cover the damage.

 

One day I realized I was begging

for the bare minimum from

someone gave my everything to.

That was the day I

started choosing myself.
