From blue waters to blue steel

“If this is all we’re living for
Why are we doing it, doing it, doing it anymore?
.
I used to recognize myself
It’s funny how reflections change
.
When we’re becoming something else
I think it’s time to walk away”

I have a side of my personality that I often hide from the world. Messy. Untrusting. Ambivalent. Grieving. Burnt out. Angry. Judgmental. Human. My whole life I thought I needed to be perfect to be loved. And the fucked up part is I thought I had to be perfect to love MYSELF. I tried to hide my flaws, hide my anger, hide my true feelings until they spiraled me into burn out.
