You are pretty" I get told wherever I go. I look around sardonically and think inside my head, "Who me? U must be talking to somebody else. All I can see is a slim figure with short hair and eyes too big. I ask my friends, "How would U describe me?" The 1st word they say is beautiful. I say thank you but inside I'm thinking, "beautiful?" That will never be me. I'm too broken... I don't have anything special to offer. My cousin keeps reassuring me that all hope is not lost. I say to her, "Who wants a girl with a shattered heart? Who wants a girl Who Will never be able to fully open up to them?" And she says to me, "U can do it. U just need the right person to help U. It's not that you can't do it, it's that you're scared. You're scared to open up and be hurt once again. I think then say, "Isn't that why it's better, better for everyone to stay away. I recently gave up on LOVE because of one individual who broke my heart and trust for the last time. How can I trust that the next person won't do the exact same thing?" No I know many of you may know what I'm talking about. Maybe you've been through the same thing and you think what is the point in even trying anymore. Am I meant to fall in love? Or should I just stop trying, giving to the fete that says I should be alone? But if we all did that, there be no next generation. No want to share a half, no one to share our love, no want to learn from our mistakes. But that doesn't make it easier. Insecurities are a dangerous thing. They make us keep a barrier around ourselves. They make us think that we can't do what we know we can do. They stop us from living our lives to the fullest. That's why, it's true you are your worst enemy. Your words and thoughts tear you down, they make you believe that you are insignificant and that nobody can help you. It's the reason that some of us suffer from what we do. It's the reason that some of us self harm or maybe think about it. It can't be hurt but it's truly a nasty thing. But the one thing we can do, we can support each other we can let one another know that I am there for you and I will help you when you need it.
