Self Love
My
dear flower,
wilting away.
Drained of life.
Drained of color.
An array of sadness
shadows over you.
You don’t do well In the darkness, so
I tried to be your sun.
Trying to keep your petals held high.
Trying to keep you alive.
I had shadows of my own,
blocking my light,
keeping me from
kissing warmth onto you.
Forgive me my dear,
I can no longer love you until
I love myself too.
Forgive me my dear,
I know you needed light, but
I needed it too.
I’m only a flower alike you.
I tried to be your sun,
but I had to be mine too.
forgive me my dear,
for turning
into the moon.
Forgive me my dear,
for not being able to
cast the shadows
away from
you.
