Of great love,
And deserve the same
In return.

Who can rationalize their lies
And disguise them as truth.

The clouds receded
Just enough
To bathe in the sun
And convince myself
That I am okay.

clothe my soul
Sometimes I wish
To veil
My inadequacies
In a layer of
Temporary
Superficial
Self esteem,
With hopes
That maybe,
This time,
My new colours
Won’t fade.

I have no trust
For people who use others;
Actors of affection
With counterfeit currency
Used for comfort,
For validation,
For release–
How long
Until you are the lemon,
Juiced from the inside out;
Skin tossed aside.

There is no
Such

As depth
Without
Darkness.

Some love
Will be given
And not reciprocated;
This is the hardest,
Most important love
To give.

not enough
How many times
Must we be broken down
Then told
We are not enough?
