When I look at myself in the mirror,
what I see is a little girl, scared and confused,
so lonesome and hurt. A girl who've been through things. Things she migth have forgotten, but they're still there..

I always bug myself whit what I should've done different, the mistakes I've made, the choises I've taken. Always think of how my life could've been..

I can't allow myself to trust, to care
I can't allow myself to need, to love
I want to be strong, I want to survive,
to stand up all alone, to make it on my own..

Yet I have this dream,
that my life was different,
that I had someone to love and trust
Someone who cared for me,
Someone who wanted to help me.
A person who loved me.

Oh, Im no easy person
I may be young, but still Im wise..
I may have courage, but still Im frigthned..
I may be strong, but still Im weeping..
I may act cool, but inside Im screaming..
I may be brave, but still Im stumbling..

..And I feel so very alone..


Again, excuse my typos..

Oh hon, sometimes believing in yourself (fully) is the hardest thing we can ever achieve, and perhaps our greatest achievement?
I myself and most others doubt ourselves too, but I have found nothing in life happens or even has a chance to work until you can love yourself.
You are sensitive and wise I can see that from this post, and that in itself is a few reasons to love yourself.
Don't mean this to sound like a lecture, it comes from caring.
Why not write me a poem about the good in you, what you do love about yourself?
There is so much I'm sure you are just on a low this evening..

The poem itself is very good,
But I feel sad.
How can you say: "Yet I have this dream, that my life was different..."?
I believe dreams can become true, don't you?

About the rest, perfect, I loved the end.
"Oh, Im no easy person
I may be young, but still Im wise..
I may have courage, but still Im frigthned..
I may be strong, but still Im weeping..
I may act cool, but inside Im screaming..
I may be brave, but still Im stumbling.."

Thanks for sharing.
Don't forget: "Life returns what you ask for".
Don't worry: It's easy to comment your poem, but sometimes, well, it's better not to read my owns.

And that's a really positive attitude to have Zarina...

it's also good to write when we're down isn't it??

When I look at myself in the mirror,
what I see is a little girl, scared and confused,
so lonesome and hurt.

And so it seems at the moment..but I see a beautiful soul..and someone strong who can express how she feels..and that is a good start towards finding yourself...
