Self Love

if you miss me

look at the moon and know that the face you see in it is my reflection staring into the sky

if you miss me

look at the moon and know that the light it shines is how much brighter my life is with you in it

if you miss me

look at the moon and remember all the memories we had under it

This abrupt feeling of hatred and hurt that grows like a beast inside my belly and suffocates like mold on my heart… where is it coming from

Why do I feel the clasp of suppressed emotion around my soul, as though one is in distress and clenched his fist around me

How does this sudden change inside of me grow to become my personality

What is that horrible stimulant that makes me feel oppressed and dark

For years I have been fighting this battle with myself.. this battle of having a third hand Continue reading suppressed emotion

i find myself writing

at times when my heart is bleeding

at times when my tears are flowing

at times when my hands are shaking

when my bones are aching

when the world is spinning

and the sky is falling

i find myself writing

when my fingers shiver

and my lips quiver

i find myself writing

when my pain is immense

and my jaw is tense

i find myself writing

when i have been hurt

at times when i wish to return to dirt.
