You tell me I’m right
You say I’ve got a point
So why does the world
Always tell me to shut up

Muted

So I look in the mirror
And my face disgusts myself
The tears start streaming
There ain’t no way to help

Condemned

My life’s beyond meaning
Because I hate myself
And no one can love me
Until I love myself

Alone

My words have lost their meaning
And my thoughts divide
Somewhere maybe
There’s a place to hide

Concealed

This love is my downfall
My love of a life
That never stops
Putting me through strife

Unsettled

The cold is unending
Battles never won
The storm isn’t over
My time isn’t done

Impatient

Hoping for an end
But couraged on
By my only friend
Myself.

small insignificant useless me

I could never love myself until I realised Someone loved me, unconditionally. And then, slowly  I learned, or am learning. But the love is there.

Just know you are significant and ..you sure can write of despair with force and feeling.
Keep hope, and keep writing.

Always, Alyssa

Despair and band-aids of lead...

You have a way of wording things simply, yet effectively. You definately get your point across.

.find your voice.

  Well written angst, Rosie. Love can really hurt sometimes, but to never love would hurt worse.
