Sabotage
I sabotage my happiness,
When things are going good.
I blow small things out of proportion
More often, then I should.
I let you in, until it scares me,
Then, slam the door in your face.
Telling you, I'm just frustrated,
Asking, that you give me space.
I feel the rift between us growing,
As you no longer try.
You used to at least attempt to understand,
You used to hold me when I cried.
I often ponder where it all went wrong,
As I move my heart, a level higher on the shelf.
Maybe I didn't trust your love for me,
Because I had never loved myself.
