Selfish


Selfish
Please turn away,
I can handle this on my own.
I do not want you to understand.
I am selfish,
scared,
and tired of you trying.

Do you want me to tell you the reasons?
Do you want me to tell you the truth?
I do not want to make you feel pain,
or guilt.

I'm protecting you 
from sleepless nights,
 miserable secrets,
honest answers.

Do not try to understand.
Secrets are kept for a reason...

I promise I will not speak,

my thoughts belong to me.

Alone

Alone This has happened before, fighting on my own. Self-hatred and sadness, thin marks, and bruised bone. The urges still haunt me, I see red and relief  The pain still controls me, that old friend, a thief. Stealing my sanity, my strength, my progress My brush needs a canvas ,I'll gently  caress  I have missed you, master,  the love you have shown. Convincing and charming, making me feel alone.

Gift

Photo from:  AuthenticGrowth.com Words talked over, my voice inside my head Eyes controlled me, my skin burned, cut, and dead Anxiety, told me the biggest lies Notebook pages, soaked up all my loud cries Every mistake, piled up on my chest Heart beat, fast pace, impossible to rest The attention, self-esteem took hold of It hurts to unwrap, what a gift is self-love.

Excellent Auburn Jewel

Excellent Auburn Jewel Dear Washington, You consumed my joy, yet you also added smiles to my days. You stole my proof-- Proof that there is such thing as fate,  that there is such thing as defeating one's fears,  and meeting your wish, on the road to Damascus. Take care of my joy, my wish. Take care of my Friend -Belle Rose
