No Longer Me Devonn Fernbach You are what I thought I wanted. Funny, smart, and undeniably handsome. I gave you too much, You didn’t give me enough. You mask the bad parts of you, Until you can’t hide them. You are scared and unsure, But if you wanted it to work You would be around more. I thought everything was going okay; I just don’t understand. You would say things in such a way, I thought you cared, But you disappeared again And that isn’t fair. No explanation was given, No text, no goodbye. I would have done anything, But was that the problem? You wasted my time. Now I’m losing my mind. You have destroyed my sense of who I am, Or who I thought I was. Am I the reason, The problem? You have broken me.
