#oldthoughts - Hello Poetry

It’s okay, I’ve closed the door It’s okay, we don’t talk anymore It’s fine, I’ve already walked down the line It’s fine, the days grow warmer in my mind I’m stronger living through it rather than wishing for it I can’t always forgive nor can I forget, I’m not some stringed up puppet, I’ve been turned into the neglected pet So weak I crumbled at your feet and wept from your deceit But I’ve been saved and I’ve been freed; no longer do these chains bind me It’s life, the way of it, the shape of it, the pain, and the pleasure of it Calling out my name doesn’t mean I’ll come back running to you all the same The leash I used to wear so proudly for you, has finally rotten in the decaying love I have for you I’ve just learned to let go of you in the only way I know how to I live beautifully through Running and jumping freeing my heart like dandinions in the wind I’m in love with this life that’s tragic, beautiful, and insane. But perhaps the most amazing part is that I’ve finally found love for myself, through all my art And I’m so happy to be living in this unexplainable and unpredictable world I smile through my tears because I finally know I really do have friends here And finally I truly realize that it’s me That’s the key! You have to love yourself before you can love and find love in this crazy world ©Jessica Stull

I wasn't kidding when I said you were cute. I wasn't joking when I said I love you. I was serious when I gave you the note. I was eager to post on your Facebook wall. I even know your birthday. I know your number. I know where you live. I'm your sister's best friend. I'm not a creep. I'm not a stalker. I'm not a ****** I'm not going to hurt you. I love you. I want you. I need you. I see you everyday, but you never see me... I love you.

It’s like seeing yourself for the first time Naked Free Innocent You realize that you know who you are You can trust yourself No more doubting your words before speaking Love sets you free Freedom is love You get lost in the fantasy of life Day dreaming, scheming, believing Thinking maybe this time you found the right path This time you’ll make it home
