You call me beautiful like it's the most honest thing you've ever said,but when I see my reflection- it's not what I see and now my confidence is shot dead. I wish I could.. even just for a second see who I am through your soulful eyes, but every night when my head hits the pillow; my thoughts start to suffocate me and it makes me believe all those compliments are just lies. I hate to admit it but my heart is broken from years of abuse and emotional trauma. I wish I could muster up the courage to tell you how I'm feeling, but I'm to Afraid to run you off with all of this drama. The look in your eyes when you smile at me makes me feel like there is hope in stitching all my worn pieces back together , I wish I could see myself like you - so I could feel that way forever . I wish I could find beauty in myself like you do, because than maybe I'd finally be able to love myself like I used to.
