You layer up, barriers
walls built to withstand
any blows that land
you hide so much
flinch at every word as it touches
don’t let them be missed
let the words stroke and kiss
You are not a monster
though you call yourself a beast
that is just an imposter
you are not a devil in the dark
just a poet with a loving heart
Give yourself a break
you don’t have to feel so much
let your mind take a walk beside a calming lake
you don’t have to ache
it's okay to let your heart touch
it's good to feel love
You think of yourself as imperfect
as unworthy of praise
yet see magic in every aspect
you deserve to stand as tall as mountains
like a lighthouse shining
a beacon of safety on dark days
Don’t cower away in darkened corners
hiding your brightness from others
don’t take dim lit alleys as a destination
let your words bring inspiration
you are not a corpse, with dead feelings
stand proud under the spotlight for one night
you don’t have to live in the shadows out of sight
Thanks For Reading,
Peace & Love.
Kyle.
