All that I deserved?
All that I could handle.
Reality whips me in the face,
and I see the fact that always existed.
Never felt that I was capable,
never dreamed I was worthy.
Lived in fantasy-
dealt with the pain.
It'll be ok,
the world had whispered,
everyday I doubted more.
My heart too cold to handle love,
so I filled it with misery.
A flair for the dramatic,
they've always said-
"only happy when it rains."
Well, that's just Garbage, anyway.
And today I awake and see,
I deserve the most and more.
My heart is persuaded-
and I understand.
I really love me.

Wow, are you writing about my life here?

Good poem. It strikes me as being very honest, which I appreciate as a reader. I like how you showed the affect of time and experience.
