Note to Self

June 16, 2016
Have a conversation with yourself boo Your heart needs a heart to heart love You've been lonely for a long time. They can see your eyes drowning in your sadness You're fading to blackness. Looking round an round for someone to call you attractive You hide behind your pride to hide what you feel inside Your need to feel what's real is your need to be foreal with yourself. Trying to please the world you make a fool of yourself. You never feel good enough .... reaching that too spot but you're never keeping up enough. Losing all the good you had left inside, that you saved for a rainy day. But you still pray for the clouds to go away.
