I ran across my pillow that I cried in
It still had letters that I died in
I felt the hurt that she was found in
The love that she tried in
The words she made up just to justify in
But later realize it was just a lie then
No more crying I throw away that pillow
Feelin like I became a widow
not knowing if I would get over him
Feeling like my heart could not get over him
But I shut the door to never look back again
loving myself took everything I got
looking within seemed like a cloud then
The fear of it keeps seeping in
Took me months to let it go again
Felt like death here we go again
Wake up girl your not healin
just to tell myself stop again
I thought I could be alone
but the loneliness started creeping in
Can you blame me for lookin?
The pillow I just throw away now I'm looking for it to comfort me
I said I was done crying
But the voice in my head kept trying
Trying to convince me I was killing myself I was dying
Girl I am done with trying
"Are you sure? I'm just saying."
I said I'm trying !
"Are you sure? Your still crying."
I guess I have more to do for myself
"You do and nothing else!"
I guess I have nothing else
"You have something that speaks for itself"
What's that?
"Love within yourself so stop denying it!"

Where's the Glory?
In breaking news, rehabilitated Republican Senator Johnnie Johnson (Pronouns: HE, HIM, HIS) called a press conference from the Men’s room of the New Orleans Louis Armstrong International Airport, Concourse B, across from the Ignatius Reilly’s Lucky Dog stand. The Senator had just returned from a sexual reorientation rehabilitation program in Memphis, TN after being publically disgraced at a Buckee’s Truckstop restroom soliciting sex from an undercover cop three months ago. He is a founding member of the Reformed Christians for Christ, a conservative, pro-family and ex-gay advocacy group. In the spirit of being reborn, Senator Johnson invited reporters to marvel at his plans for a major remodeling of airport bathrooms.

A very beautiful poem of self-expression that truly deals with the psychology of love and happiness. Every time, something beautiful is given that teaches!
Beautifully written
