Things You Need to Know About MeA Poem by Ally AnnA disclaimer I wrote late at night when I was feeling especially unloveableThings you need to know about me One. I am broken fully shattered by myself and others, trying to pick up the puzzle pieces I’ve been left to find. Worn into a two edged sword that has cut my skin and left me unloveable. Two. Some days it will seem like I am cured. I will look whole, as if a miracle came from heaven and fixed my aching skin and wrapped me up in something that will never happen. I will seem okay as if everything before was just a phase, but I need you to know that tomorrow I will be me again. Jagged lines drawn across rainy skies that never quite made a connection. Three. I am trying. Can’t you see from the bags under my eyes that this is eating me alive? I was two steps from Hell, but now I am four, trying to dig my way back to sanity. There is peace in giving up, but I have opted for chaos. © 2018 Ally Ann |
