Better Self

As I lie, My heart yearns for time Of my past life When I was cruel and blind. I loved myself less, Clouded by inclination of being loved. Aspiration of being wanted, Feeling wanted! I had sleepless nights, Cried myself to sleep; Frustrated that I wasn't enough, That I'll never be enough! You pierced my heart With deliberated actions and barbaric words I apologized, even though you were wrong. You pieced again! Till the last drop left my veins. Now I lie, Heart at ease and mind at peace. I needed to lose you to find me. I evolved, loving me better than ever!
