Month: March 2019

holding your little hands in mine
seeing your smiles
hearing your laughs
my face is in your faces
pieces of me
make up pieces of you
you both are my heart
and my life
and my light
my boys until
forever

take my hand
I want to show you
my light
my love
let me bewitch you
dazzle you
amaze you
come
take my hand

I can feel the fire
the flame deep inside
I can see the light
it’s brighter than its ever been before
I am the witch
I am the goddess
and all I want to do is laugh
and smile
because I know now
the universe is guiding me
and teaching me
and the things I thought I needed
are clearly not the things I need

there it is
again
that little spark of hope
someone comes along and
reminds you
there are people out there
there is someone out there

I still get mad sometimes. The one-sided conversations (you remember, the ones you said were attacks) pop up in my mind and get me raging all over again. Just because I’m upset, it doesn’t mean I want you back. I don’t need you or miss you, but I still grieve. I mourn for the life I’d made up in head. I mourn for the man who doesn’t exist. Sometimes I still want things that aren’t real.

I may not be yours
anymore
and you might not
be mine
but I still feel comfort
in holding your hand
sometimes
and laughing with you
and drinking with you
and talking with you
maybe it’s not what I imagined it to be
but you and me
the things you showed me
and taught me
the way you brought the smile
and the light
back into my life
you are and always will be
part of me

you don’t get to tell me
what or when
to do something
I am not yours
I don’t belong to you
you don’t even know me
and I don’t owe you
anything

I told you to leave
because I knew
I deserved better than
what you did to me
what you were doing to me

it hurt when you walked away
and I realized
you were not as upset as me
you could never be as upset as me

I wonder what pieces of me
you took with you
when you left

parts of my heart
now left with all these deep holes
most of my trust
all of my innocence
and hope

good thing though
you can grow back most of those things

I will see my value
I will not allow
anyone
to make me feel anything less than
my worth
because I am gold
I am diamonds
I am everything
and so much more
