Self Destruct w/ Insert

Self Destruct w/ Insert

A Poem by Diamond Dunbar
"

Self destruction of good things because you’ve been deprived for so long by others that you started to treat yourself the same but you love yourself so it’s a constant battle of losing them or you.

"
When it’s too good to be true, I get lost in the cons of love, I,
Self destruct.

When life is just too much and I just wish I could give up, I let myself,
Self destruct.

When I’m clouded in my wrongs with an ache to make them right yet I find an excuse for one more day to,
Self destruct.

When the opinions of others start to become like melodies of the greatest love song I’ve yet to feel I,
Self destruct.

When it’s good for me but unfamiliar, I
Self destruct.


I got so use to being out of touch.
I got so used to not giving a f*ck.
I got so used to being left out.
I got so use to the bad that I accepted it as all I had and when you gave me something more well it wasn’t long until I messed it up.
And when you gave me love, I ran because it wasn’t greater than mine.
When self love is the best love, who wants to settle for what someone else is hesitant to give you.
No one.
So I self destruct under toxic self love because well truthfully I’m scared as f*ck.
