How
How do you even like me? What do you even like about me that makes you keep saying you love me everyday?

How do you keep those thoughts at the forefront of your mind as you watch my daily failures?

How do I also attain this level of love for you?
Just some feelings going on lately

your vague and generic words don't soothe my worry...
it seems like you immediately went to talking to someone as soon as I left the room...
and your only offer of reassurance was your generic, "you're the only woman in my life"...
but I know I don't just have to worry about women with you...
i have to worry about everything.
i feel like you don't care anymore, and I'm not sure where this feeling is coming from.
but it has been growing and there have been no reassurances from you that seem genuine anymore...

Now is not a time for growth. Now is the time for regeneration. For preparation of that growth. For now, let us sleep as the earth sleeps. Conduct that inner work, build your inner world, sew the seeds so that you can watch your world bloom in the spring

While everyone is busied chasing the light
I take my strolls in darkness
Yes, I wish I was like you...
I wish I was that positive light shining
Attracting those around me like moths to the flame
A shining beacon of hope and love

But I will forever be a shadow...
Delight myself in the dead and dying
The sick and twisted and hurt and broken
I contain just enough light to lead them
A flickering candle to follow
Until you see the light at the end of the tunnel
The opening to this dark cavern
The silver lining past these dark stormy clouds

Follow that light, but I remain here
Knowing my place and my purpose
I am in limbo between the dark and the light
I am like the ferryman, the gatekeeper
I am the shadow that can sometimes be
Barely perceptible, or darker than nightmarish dreams...

Maybe that's what I've been doing wrong
So fiercely I've been holding on
Perhaps this is why I struggle so
Why my happy ending never shows
I want to prove to the world this love is true
But when I stop and think I've never been happy with you
I told myself over and over "it's just me"
"You're wanting too much"
"This is enough"
But maybe.... just maybe
It isn't... and that's ok...
Don't settle

You are special
No other like you
You are the main character
In the story of you
You write it like a poet
It makes sense only to you
You draw the scenes
In them- a crying, smiling, fuming you
You decide the cast
How they interact with you
You are the storyteller
Whatever happens, it is all you
You are already there
You are you

envy
such an UGLY word
yet I wear it well
I won't lie
it fits like a glove most days
appreciation
a thing of pure BEAUTY
though out of my price range
becoming more rare
than finding true love
Ugly truth hidden in a beautiful painting
