All of Me

April 30, 2023
By Anonymous

I gave you the world.

Every particle of earth.

Every body of water.

 

I clawed at the dirt until my hands were stained.

 

I drained the rivers, emptied the lakes, swallowed the

oceans, collected the rain.

 

I gave you the universe.

Every star I could find.

Every moon I could reach.

 

I stared at the sun until I went blind.

I stole Saturn’s rings and traveled through time.

 

I gave you my all until I fell apart.

Every breath I took.

Every beat of my heart.
