my digital garden

always back to you

no matter the highs no matter how good it gets how good i have it

no matter who's with me no matter who supports me no matter who laughs no matter the words of encouragement no matter who says they have my back

i am alone with only you and really, i'm not even alone i don't even exist in the way i pretend i do it's only you it's only ever been you

since birth when i was getting choked to death when i was getting touched when i was drunk vomitting unconscious, alone when i saw my brother's dead body when i was in the hospital when i was in my room when i was unconscious

it was only ever you everyone else comes everyone else goes everyone else lies or they can't keep their promise

but you you never spoke so you never could fail to keep your promise you always watched, unconditionally you never left my side

so i guess i'm not even really alone because there is no i there is only u
