My Inner Beauty

I was so undeserving,

And yet you were so persistent.

I pushed, and you pulled.

I cried; you held me. 

My heart was broken, 

you repaired it.

When I needed it most, you were there, 

By my side through it all.

You loved me,

Even when I didn't love myself.

When I hesitated to see my worth,

You showed it to me.

I was a disaster, yet you still dared to show me my inner worth and beauty.

  • Loving A Narcisist

    They call it loving a narcissist.

    When you love somebody so deeply,

    but you can't feel the love they claim to have for you.

    You're raised being told they love you.

  • Living Vs. Surviving

    Many kids know what it feels like to be able to live.

    No fear, worries, or responsibilities in front of them.

    From a young age, I was never one of those kids.

    I grew up too fast.

  • Healing Isn't Linear

    Walk in a straight line they say,

    They say you should have moved on by now.

    Walk forward and never look back, they say.

    Years.

    It has taken me years to “walk in a straight line.”
