Analysis of dependant



it is a little ironic
how I once wrote a poem
about how you are everything

because that,
that was the whole problem

and it's ironic because I never noticed

I never noticed the weight that I put on your shoulders just by believing that

and it's ironic because
now you are gone

and I’m not angry with you
I could never be
I know why you left me

all because of that stupid little statement
that I believed a little too much

you are not everything,
you were never meant to be everything

and I’m sorry
I’m sorry for not realizing how much I could hurt you with that one stupid little statement

About this poem

this one is about the realization that the relationship I had with my previous ex girlfriend was entirely too dependent and feeling like me making her my everything was one of the reasons we didn’t work out
