Monster

I want to be a part of your world
Can I?
I want to love, I want to be loved
I want to return those feelings
But I am like a glass,
I am warmly cold,
I am cruelly kind
I am something I Don't know myself
Maybe I am a monster
Or am I really a monster?

Author's Note

A poetry about when a person lives through that merciless and lonely time of life where they often question their actions and wholly as a human being, who is desperately in need of someone who wont turn away while everyone turns away and isolates them at that moment of life.

I feel as though many of us creatives can relate to this feeling. Often feeling misunderstood, while also misunderstanding ourselves. To know thyself is an struggle of its own, and is by far the hardest path to travel. Because as we do, we realize the road doesn't really end--just lots of places to stop and rest. I know for me personally, I asked myself if I was a monster. Was I the problem? Sometimes. But more often than not, I found I was placing myself around people who really didn't have my best interests at heart. One day, you'll wake up and realize you aren't the terrible people you were once led to believe. You were a survivor of a hell many couldn't, or refused, to see. Although it doesn't do much good to hate those who left us to sink, or perhaps were the ones to push our heads under in the first place, try not to. Focus on pouring love into yourself, and be amazing how quickly your world around you reflects the nurturing care you placed within yourself.

Keep writing, and keep learning to love thyself. But for now, take life one day at a time, and keep your chin up. You probably have more folks rooting for you than you realize.

I agree! Feeling misunderstood is one of the worst feelings one can experience but learning to live with that and continuing to love yourself, and knowing your true self are the greatest gifts that one can achieve which many fail to achieve. Everyone is a soldier, fighting their own wars to live through the end to see the unknown future which awaits with the gifts of blessings for life or of lessons to remember forever. No one knows what is out there so live life today and love yourself to reach the zenith of the world because you don't know what the future holds.

writing is the best way to express yourself and know yourself and let your true self be known through the pages and to let your feelings out which you can't express in life.
