Same As Me

A Poem

By Jessi EllisPublished 6 years ago 1 min read

I wish I could say that I hate you

I wish even more that I could follow through with those feelings

You don’t know what it is to have perfection stolen from you

To be told that you have to forget everything that grew on you

Everything that comforted you

To be at a point where what you need most is taken from you

Increase the physical pain with emotional needs and wants

As the marks on my skin refuse to fade

To remind me that I will never be able to go back

A situation no one can win

Either side that is chosen says that the other is lesser

That one person’s feelings matter less than the others

To know that I mean less to you than you to me

That I could step down so easily

But it was for the best

It’s what was logical

It only made sense

Because how could we be we if you did not feel the same as me
