Sitting and thinking,
Looking back on all the times.
I spent my life buried in my pillows,
Letting out endless cries.
Scars cover my body,
From taking out my pain.
Trying to conquer life,
By beating it at its own game.
It was the high's of my life,
And it was the lowest i could have been.
The most i ever felt seperated from myself,
The most i ever contacted my soul within.
Pulled out of my black hole.
By 20 million hands.
They treated me w/meds and think i'm all better,
But no one really understands.
Every now and then i visit that place,
With mirrors reflecting a disgrace.
It throws all the horrible things in life,
Right in my face.
I miss it oddly enough,
Not really ever ready to leave.
At the same time not really shur,
That in myself i could ever really believe.
The life i lead now is not me,
I still have remains of the past.
For the scars i have created,
Were made to last.
They are the path back to the past,
For when i get scared.
Cant handle this reality,
When im so unprepared.
Im walking in somoene elses shoes,
That dont quite fit.
And all im left with,
Is to just deal with it.

Michele~ looking back gives us a sense of direction......knowing where we have been, helps us to get to where we need to go. Look back, but don't go back.....it's done. Time to look forward and know, just know, you'll make it.....one step at a time. Hugs

This poem was great. You expressed these feelings very well. I think we can all relate sometimes, me more often than most. Great poem. Take care

You did well on this one. I enjoyed it greatly!

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily
