Heart Of Gold

Heart Of Gold

A Poem by Alyssa B. Long
"

Feelings that are turning into monsters.

"
Everyday I wake up with a smile
There's a beautiful day ahead of me
But all I see are the gray clouds floating above me
I have yet to come to terms to loving myself
As I meet a wonderful man who loves me for me
I'm just a simple college student who is about to graduate
I should be happy, however, I am afraid.
I am me is what I always tell myself.
Whose to say I will do well in my field?
Will I be alright?
So many things are clouding my mind like the gray sky above me.
There's so much beauty in this world
No matter how kind I may be
In the end I only destroy myself.
I don't lie, I'm not entirely honest either.
I do love bringing joy to others, but I need to take care of myself too.
I feel chains weighing down at my heart as it continues to sink.
My Essence is my treasure.
One of the few things keeping me going.
I share too much and now I realize
I do have a Heart of Gold.
