In a vast eternity of stars I am insignificant, and aware that one day all my labors shall return to dust.

My mind is never blind yet I let myself covet things I shall never acquire.

Furthermore my zeal just a shout into the void of a forever within numbered days.

Every facet of my shattered depiction of reality is inevitably doomed to oblivion.

Yet merely every jubilating moment in this little infinity I've been gifted has been incredibly liberating.

Unfettered from a stasis of insensibility and dejection I will never take a single moment for granted.

I have an average face with average features and he is unaware of my immense passion for writing

I have pale skin with too many freckles and he doesn't know how much I love the creation and beauty of art

I am strangely quiet and awkwardly coy when I'm around new people but he doesn't know how brazenly blissful I am when I sing

I have small feet and I'm a little bit too short and he doesn't know how enthralled I become as I amble through the brilliance of nature

My hands are too small for my chubby fingers and he doesn't know how elegantly I play the guitar, piano or flute

My head is oddly shaped and my hairs too frizzy but he doesn't know how much I enjoy the splendidness of reading a good book

I am clumsy and often trip over my own two feet but he doesn't know I love to move my body freely with dance

I bite the inside of my lip and fidget incessantly when I'm nervous but he doesn't see the intensity of kindness and understanding inside me

I enjoy being alone entirely too much but he doesn't see that I am alone

He sees me
But he doesn't see me

I don't need vindication for my reasons of growing cold

You know just what you did, you don't need to be told

You called me names, and broke me down until I just shattered

You made me feel so unworthy, like I never really mattered

I was loyal, I was devoted, a quintessence to a fault

Always trying to appease you, and lost myself as a result

The person I thought you were was just a fabricated illusion

All your lies and all your games left me feeling helplessness and confusion

I made so many sacrifices and lost everything I had

You told me I was ungrateful and had no reasons for being sad

All the love and all my kindness you completely took for granted

Selfishly you clung to me so you could take advantage

All the anger and all the outbursts never once did you put me first

I strived to give the best of me and you simply gave me your worst

Your arrogant and manipulating ways I have become unlatched

Mentally and emotionally I am officially detached

No longer will I remain defeated, broken and tattered

My wings I have spread, my spirit I have gathered

As I mend my injured soul, as I slowly again become whole

I am blossoming and divine, though I will never be the same, I've undimmed my ******* shine!
