come towards me
don't fear, nothing will go wrong
your thick skin is enough
don't fear rejection
why do I scare you?
might not happen today
but tomorrow
there is failure in the past
but now success
i'm ready
moving forward
thinking about a future
don't fear
be impulsive
find a happy place
looking into the future
what else is here?
not expecting this
is it nostalgia?
asking for help
you said,
maybe, you abandoned yourself
i thought
i did what was right
i reached out
matured from my turbulent past
i knew when I was wrong
judging
why did i go there?
what was i trying to save?
not letting another slip through
thought i was helping
enduring more tough times
energies
finances
bad relationships cost us
finances, self, emotions
questioning everything
self-worth
i felt lonely
insecure
giving and giving
I saw nothing
coming back
empty
taking and taking
time
kindness
now providing myself
love is forever
an add-on
in-addition
a nice to have
but not, fundamental to
my well being
transparency
I'm not angry
i'm smarter
independent
surrounding myself with
uplifting
kind
sincere
i see differently
forever changed
out of the challenges
growing
providing
not others
love is now
a nice to have
replacing
the most difficult lesson
forced to learn
i always come first
i won't forget
a nice to have
you said,
maybe, you abandoned yourself
you were right
i did
not worth it
a lesson
i will never forget
and forced over and over
to learn
love
is a nice to have
