Passivity

18 8 3
                                    

I would've waited
a thousand lifetimes
for you to heal,
to be ready,

But to you...

I'm just a fleeting second,
irreparably broken,
a replaceable object
of insignificant importance,

Unworthy of even
a tiny speck
of patience
I so benevolently gave,

Unworthy of a flicker
of hope
I used to amplify
with luminosity,

Unworthy
of the love
I emitted
fiercely,
abundantly,

So how can you question
my passivity,
when all the world ever did
was take and take and take
from me?
