she wrapped her fingers
(creeping up slowly
like that weed
in your garden
that you wish would
die off
and never return.)

around his,
tightly.

(suffocating the
life out of him
as well,
and dragging
him down
into her depression.)


she promised
to never
let go,

(because then
who would keep her
from drowning.)

and she told him
teasingly,
that she would always
be his personal
problem.

(and she meant it like
a promise but really it
just sounded like
a curse.)


her words honestly
came across anything other than
playful.

(because her saying that,
said everything
she really didn’t want to
say.)
There's just some days where you doubt yourself. I don't even know how to communicate most of my current stress in legible poetry.

I love the metaphor in this and how the main and sub parts mesh together so well. Great job!
