introspectivity. a poetry collection

𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐈'𝐯𝐞 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐧𝐞𝐞𝐝𝐞𝐝

I feel trapped, unprepared

for this life ahead of me 

I don't know, I don't care

what will happen

faking smiles gets so tiring

while my mental health's expiring

my broken wings try to fly away,

but I'm crumbling every step I take

I want to be alone

with no one to hold,

no one to comfort me,

not even in my darkest times

I want to be alone

even when I feel cold

drifting away endlessly

like clouds in the bluest of skies

although I'm lying to myself

and I think I need some help

I can't seem to stay away

stepping on broken seashells

I love love

I crave comfort

I don't want to be alone

I never did.

don't take it too seriously 

it's just my way of coping

but I have you

I always did.

that's all I've ever needed

I just forgot temporarily

but whatever the weather,

I hope we'll be together 

I ask you to forgive me

please just love me tenderly

please just love me

you're all I've ever needed
