my poetry was the most
d̶a̶n̶g̶e̶r̶o̶u̶s̶ precious part of me
i poured every heartbreak
every feeling of happiness
of sadness
of anger
of love
in a few words (like the silly girl i was )
and i gave it to you (like the silly girl i was)
but you took it,
and burned it to ashes
now there is nothing left
i have forgotten how to write
you break a glass
and it shatters
you break me
and i shatter
(but i don't simply shatter. i feel worthless, defeated, broken. i feel as if i alone am carrying the weight of this entire universe, do you understand how heavy that is? i feel as if i had lost that one thing which had kept me going. just a pathetic girl who got her heart broken, once again.)
but the difference
between the glass and i is
that i c̶a̶n̶ will take my broken pieces
and will somewhat try to fix them together
i will take
what is left of me
and give it a bath in rosewater
hold it with gentle hands
love it with all my might
after all,
i can't afford to lose myself again.
- the glass does not have the ability to fix itself, i have the ability to take my broken pieces and try to mend them. i will try to convince myself that i really am okay, will force a smile till it's permanently there and be what they call happy. what a shock it will be for all those that have hurt me, i truly am a miracle.
i have slowly started to write again
