Only now I can see almost clearly
My eyes clouded by devotion
Words of advice I’ve spoken so many times to friends in their time of need
Become the reality check I myself need to hear
Blinded by love for so long
not seeing what was there in front of me
Disconnect
We were not one
Always unbalanced
But trying to force someone to be who they are not
Blaming myself for being too emotional
But now I am proud of my feelings
They take me higher
To another frequency
A stepping stone in the journey of me
Stop
Stop trying to understand something and someone who is not on my level
Feel sympathy, because they could never be in touch with their own souls so deeply
Move
Gracefully and with dignity
Ending the toxic cycle that I allowed myself to repeat so naturally
As though it was what I deserved
Because I’m free
To only except love and respect that I express so easily
Second nature
To see beauty in everything
Disregard imperfections because we’re only human
But unkind actions I cannot excuse
Because I am worth more.

yes you are, keep being true to yourself!
Thank you x
I agree with Gon. Good job,
Thank you also! X
Interesting read. Seems you've got personal relationships, romance and so on sorted, Olivia. At least that aspect of your life should go well.
Now for the rest....
I have been inspired recently from a relationship that didn’t quite work out how I wanted. I have written multiple pieces. I think when you feel emotional the words just flow so easily. And I find it therapeutic. X
Confident write, Olivia.
Thank you. X
A beautiful poem again, Olivia! I don't know you, but anybody who can write like you do IS worth more!
Fred your comments encourage me so much thank you! X
We must always be true to ourselves and in that truth we will find others that are worth trusting.
