Finding Myself  

I've learned more about myself in the last few weeks than the two years
that I have been tied down to one heart.

I also have not had many moments where I wanted to 
pull out my friend-- to cut all my worries into little pieces!
Only a few times,
I promise.
But a few times is better than everyday of my life.

I have another face that I see now before I commit to that first cut.
This face is different though.
This face  isn't helping me do it.
This face isn't causing my pain, my low self-esteem.
This face doesn't just try to make the pain go away with a dark joke.
He actually cares.

Everything is so different with him.
I'm so comfortable around him.
At one moment we will be talking about movies and 
then out of no where, I'll spill some of my deepest secrets...without any regret.


But I love the one who adds to the pain.
The one who has a place on my skin, 
all red and faded.
Always there when I need it though...
which is too often.

Who the hell has places on their skin designated for each person that hurts them...?
Me.
The stupid girl that can't just "get over it".

And now...
the "bandage" is showing up on my cell phone's screen,
butterflies are flying too much in my stomach,
while at the same time,
I'm torturing myself for letting the one who "loves" me persuade me to do, 
again, what he wants.

How did I get into this mess?

All I did was be myself.

Excellent Auburn Jewel

Dear Washington, You consumed my joy yet you also added smile 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

Feel

I hope your heart, will spin out of control Dizzy and sick, falling in a deep hole. Deep in sadness, always never enough Losing your worth, not a diamond, but rough.  I hope you cry, until your brown eyes close Dream then wake up, by a thorn of a rose. Smile all day, then feel low when alone Hear one song, then feel the cuts that were sown. Smell memories, of fresh cookies and love vanilla, fruit, or all of the above.  But most of all, I pray that you can heal My broken heart does not want you to feel... How I feel.  -Belle Rose 

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.
