When I first heard you speak

I knew you felt different

Of course

I wasn't sure what I was feeling at first

But soon

I knew I liked you

But someone who I cared about

Told me

She liked you too

She didn't know how I felt

And she liked you

So I told her something

That I will never regret

Go for him

I pushed you together

And soon

You two fell in love

Now that I reflect

I realize something

You

You were my first heartbreak

I spent months

Crying myself to sleep

Listening to songs

Of being the girl

That you don't love

I suffered in silence

I shouldn't have though

I spent over a year

Alone

In a dark box

With four walls a floor and a ceiling

Each wall was a challenge I was facing

And my feelings for you

Were one of them

A room of darkness

I couldn't escape

I sat in the corner of that room

Then I realized

I could knock down a wall

A sledge hammer appeared and I used it

I watched as the wall

Crumbled

And it was my escape from the room

My escape from my feelings for you

My escape from the rest of my challenges

So thank you

Thank you for helping me

Save myself, from that

Dark room.
