Hi, I am Me.

And i was once told,

That no one could love me 

More than me.

But I can't see

What there is to love,

For I am just, Me.



Because for as long as i remember

I've been taught to love

Beauty,

To love strength,

To love smiles.



So how can I love me,

When I don't see beauty,

When I am weak,

When I don't remember,

What it's like to smile.

Because for as far back

As I can think,

All I've ever loved,

Are the tears in my eyes,

The cuts on my wrists.

Are the scratches on my ankles.

The blood dripping down my skin,

Was all I've ever lover.

But this is the sight

That others considered

Tragedy.

So how can I love,

Something I am taught 

To hate.
