I guess I write in third person
so I can pretend that my feelings
aren't mine
I'm very much comfortable being alone
I enjoy nothing more than my own
Company
Happily free to do what I want and tend to myself
My confidence is built only by the way I view myself
Yes my loved ones opinions count but which one matters most than your own?
Yes it's nice to have a lover or date
But you have to learn to be happy with yourself
Before your even happier with someone else
I'm not sure if this is even a poem but here's something to think about(; don't ever think you need a boyfriend/girlfriend to keep your happiness. Love yourself before anyone else.

Glide your fingers down the railing
As you make your grand ingression
Meeting the faces you are destined to meet
As they fasten their first impressions

You are one to worry what they think
And wonder how or why
But, know that they have trained themselves
To create facades and alibis

They would be just as scared as you
If they were the ones walking down that stair
So hold your head up high, my dear
As if you did not care
Just a note to myself that everyone feels like this

A while ago, the mirrored me,
in my reflection looked tired, you see,
This went on and on, oh my,
The time has really passed me by,
It's with regret I now accept,
However long, I've ****** slept,
Without being so tactfully told,
That I'm not just tired, but getting old.
You stab me in the back with a knife,
and I apologize for bleeding on it.
I remember God on the family tree.
When are you coming back?

Never again
will I fall for someone so hard
Never again
will I trust someone so quickly
Never again
will I be so vulnerable
Never again
will I apologize for someone else's actions
Never again
will I let someone take advantage of me
Never again
will I stay in a one way relationship
Never again.

I still remember my thoughts from the beginning
I was so worried of losing you
You would always reassure me
and tell me everything would be okay
I trusted that everything would truly work out
You were a great convincer
Because look at us now
You treat me like I'm invisible
I should've trusted my instincts
