Loving me


Today
I don't want to write about you
Or you loving her
And not picking me 
I don't want to think
That I'm lonely 
Or unloved
And I don't want to write about how I fell in love with you
So softly 
And beautifully
Or call it a tragedy
I just want to think about myself
And giving me the love I deserve
Because maybe if I focus on my own heart
And maybe if I start to love myself and all of my flaws
Someone will actually start to love me too
 
-m.c.-
 
February 14, 2015;
If you don't love yourself, who will?
