Looking deep into my swollen
Heart
It has always beat
For someone else.
I find focusing on me
Is hard.
It doesn’t come natural
to me to be selfish.
And when I am,
I get guilty and or
guilted.
I just want to love me
the way everyone says
they love me.
I want to see me
the way everyone
Sees me.
I want to know
how to not
share every detail of my life
with the first listening ear.
I want to be heard
Even when I am
