Hard Feelings

by jackie-harrington

I am my own worst enemy At times I only see what my demons see And when it gets hard to breathe I think about my body six feet deep And I'm just being honest Half my life I sliced my skin just so I could feel inside myself Now you know I needed help There are no hard feelings But these are my hard feelings Remember when I lost that weight? You all thought I looked so great... I think my mom only loved the space I filled Now she doesn't even love that Sometimes I just can't connect Why are these feelings harder to express? There are no hard feelings But these are my hard feelings
