#insicurities
My most persistent insicurities
the ugliest ones
always begging for attention
they become cherished parts
of me
through your eyes I saw their beauty
and I can't thank you enough

Powerless
I finally get up, i leave you behind
Now i'm free
Senseless
I cry of joy as mom holds me in her arms
Now i feel
Empty
I paint 'til i can't feel my hands anymore and my cheeks hurt
a sweet ache caused by my smile
Now i create
Ugly
I look in the mirror
I don't see a stranger
Now i am
But not really
I'm not
Not now

When I feel lost in this world
full of potential
and twists and turns
When I feel I have no place
in structured conversations
and I barely recognize my face
When I have no friends nor foes
or at least I can't see them anymore
my aunt, my cousin, my dad propose
that art is always open
that poetry will always listen
and my history is my token
I am the culmination
of my family's art
So I will work
and tear myself apart
with verses and rhymes
and paintings and designs
'Cause our history has no end
so long as on my shoulders it dipends

"Can you hear that sound?
Do you see those tears?
Can you feel their pain?
Do you know for real?
Are you actually prepared?
Can you do anything?
Will you let it fall down?
Will you make it easier for me?"
No.
I will
conquer.

Don't tell me no,
Of course unless you want to.
Come hold my hand,
Unless you don't want to.
Please don't leave me alone,
Of course unless you want to.
