THESE ARE THE LOST WRITINGS WHERE UNPUBLISHED AND FORGOTTEN POETRY FINALLY COMES TO LIGHT.
SCARRING WORDS
Those snide remarks that you make
leaves a mark but it doesn’t show.
You see it in the smiles that I fake,
you made me laugh at my own flaws.
The things I feel insecure about
are the things I hate myself for.
But you clearly pointed them out
and you made me hate myself more.
You shoot at my confidence
just to make yourself look cool.
Now, I just sit here in silence
while you make me look like a fool.
Maybe kindness is nothing.
Maybe empathy is gone
and it all made me thinking
that love is just a big illusion.
I wrote a bunch of poetry back in 2017, it was all over the place so I finally retrieved it from my old broken laptop and some were from my old journal pages that I may have forgotten about.
For the next few days I decided to publish some of it here since I am currently uninspired to write. So, forgive these old words that I hope you’ll like.
