FRAGMENTS OF A SHATTERED REALITY

August 21st
If life were a person,
I’d be their darkest foe,
If self-loathing were a crime,
In prison, I’d be a pro.
If my reflection were a dream,
I’d shatter the glass to wake,
If emotions were a curse,
I’d relish the chance to break.
If joy were a competition,
I’d always fall behind,
If pessimism were a plague,
I’d be its foremost sign.
Her smile, a crafted mask,
Her laughter hides the strain,
Her scars, like hidden maps,
Reveal a quiet pain.
Her voice remains unspoken,
Yet so much yearns to be said,
Will these shadows ever vanish?
Will life always feel this dread?
Will beauty ever show its truth,
As it’s meant to be displayed?
Or will I stay a fractured soul
In a world that seems decayed?

@adaptableMaple1545. So emotional and beautiful, it bought a tear to my eye😥 you really have a way with words ❤
I'm sorry you suffer so much, I'm sorry your self esteem and self worth is low🙁 but I have no doubt that yes, one day you will shine, your day will come when you hold your head up high, and walk confidently were ever you go ❤ the world can definitely seem corroded, it can really suck. But remember if the world didn't suck, we'd all fall off 😁❤
keep writing poetry, express your feelings, and never give up on hope that one day everything will be ok ❤ gives you a giant tiny hug ❤
