I Love Myself

-Now here we are.

Doing this again.

But this time is different

I feel different within.

-Here you are.

Crying about my footsteps

Finally they are not in your direction.

Actually away from you

In another path.

You crushed me

Smacked my heart around.

Never did you care before now

But this time is different.

You feel it now.

-Now Here I am.

Walking away from you

Stepping out the door.

I used to frown

I used to cry

I used to beg for this not to us.

But this time is different.

The time before was the run around.

Me not letting you go

Because I was fed up

Because I was the hurt one.

But you weren’t ready to be caught and blamed.

You knew how to get me back into that place.

You knew I couldn’t let you go.

But I watched you sleep.

I looked back at our memories.

I then saw ,

The truth.

I saw through it all.

Back then I made myself a Promise.

A real one this time.

I Promise to be more,

To love myself.

I Promise to care about my feelings,

To not hurt myself.

I Promise next time,

There won’t be a next time.

Self , I Promise

To love you.

To love your beauty.

To appreciate your will power.

To embrace your emotions.

To care.

To be there for you.

To be your bestfriend ,

And not our killers.

Self I Promise

To love myself.
