I liked you, you liked someone else
You held me, I felt safe
You kissed me, I felt afloat
You said you'd stay, I believed
You said I'm perfect, but I wasn't
You made me feel like I'm worth something, but I wasn't worth enough for you to stay,
so you left.
Like that kiss meant nothing,
Like your touch didn't awake the sparks,
Like your hoodie on my body didn't feel warm and like home,
Like all your words were just letters floating in the air with no meaning behind them, said just to be heard, listened to just to be believed,
Like those texts were only phrases written in false identity,
Like your kindness was just a mask, ready to fall once you crawled into my shell and occupied it,
Like I wasn't enough.
I said it was okay, but it wasn't
I gave you my first kiss, I gave you my body, my soul, my mind, and most importantly
my trust.
I trusted you to take care of me and not leave me aside with no guilt felt. But once you were done, you threw me away, stepped over me, and walked away.
Leaving me, alone.
I loved you,
but that was never enough.

This was a little longer poem I wrote myself, about my first love, about trust, and about leaving.
