Unease

You listened to the lies it told you

When you knew better

You saw the truth but cowered back to the deception

Battles won, when you were close to victory

Feelings of loneliness and sadness

All lies

Unnecessary burdens you carried

Thoughts that violated your beautiful mind

Attacks that took a toll

Relationships that faltered and diminished

Nights of imaginary pain

Moments of uncertainty, when the beautiful truth was in front of you

Shrouds of darkness that dimmed your light

False worry that caused doubt

Trying to push it away

Free falling into an abyss

I don’t want this

…

Trying to remind yourself of your beauty

Your light

Telling yourself…

I am not small

I am charismatic

Graceful

Amazing

Magnificent

Beautiful

I won’t let it take me
