This is a poem for those abused
For I am one myself

I survived and moved on
Remember there are people to help

It's not your fault and it's okay to tell someone

They may have touched me
But they can never touch my heart or soul
I was molested as a child by a neighbor and only recently told my family about the incident. For years I felt it was my fault, but through therapy realized I should have had nothing to fear. If someone you know is being hurt, or you yourself have been, don't be afraid to tell someone about it.

The most beautiful love story,
Is that of light and nothing,

Light brings something to nothing,
Nothing allows light to shine.

Be a nothing to a light.
Be a light to a nothing.
I dunno what I'm doing with this, but random thoughts ig.

Perhaps I was young,
Desperate for warmth,
And you saw my untainted trust.

And perhaps you taught me lessons,
Ones I have yet to find forgiveness,
Left to die in my chest.

And perhaps I was naive,
I looked to you for love,
Yet all I found was empty promises.
I remember that feeling all too well. Pure pain, that spreads from your chest to your finger tips.

I love with youth,
Vitality and passion,
But I hope to learn,
The art of loving old.

I stole from you.
Your hoodie,
Right off your back.
It's only fair,
For you stole my heart. <3

You're the one,
I want to keep,
And hold in my heart,
Till I fall to dust,
Just as hard as I've fallen for you.
I was sad to see someone taking credit for this poem on their page. But I hope everyone knows I wrote it. :/

Somedays we work,
Some nights we cry,
Sometimes I lay on the floor and stare into nothing,

For all the somethings in life,
One thing is true,
It's always okay to be you.
Love yourself
