Izzy Hawthorne Poet Rhyme

Ship of Theseus

Oh but did you know 
Or did you ever believe
All the faith i put in you 
Was also into you and me?

If I know you like I think I do
Then, well, perhaps you did 
But after all yiu put me through 
Are you surprised at how I acted? 

Always tried to do you right 
But somehow I was wrong 
I didn’t even try to fight 
Cuz my feelings are still strong 

I hope you know
I didn’t want to go 

But for the sake of my own mind 
And maybe also for my heart 
I had to leave my love behind 
And it’s tearing me apart 

I’m a mess as it stands 
Torn down into shambles 

No longer picking pieces up 
I’ll leave them in the brambles 

I’ll build new pieces, shape them up 
Replace the once I lost 
Much like the ship of Theseus 
Is it still me? 
Was this the cost?
