Ashley Adorno Poem
Broken skin on my hand with some glass shards in between my cuts
As I sit here in front of this so called beautiful me looking so lifeless.
I can’t tell you the numerous times I sat in front of this mirror
With the blood dripping down my hands because I have had enough of always feeling sorry for myself
Enough of the lies people have told me, enough of the betrayal enough just enough.
I can literally feel my stomach being twisted into ways I never thought possible..
The feelings of sharp thumping pain flowing to my heart.
Any given moment felt like my heart would stop beating
Because tonight I cried because I am tired of always being there for everyone
While I am merely a thought in anyone else’s mind.
Tears running down my eyes as I grip onto my stomach & heart
Looking in the mirror asking myself why? Why aren’t you good enough?
Good enough for at least one person who wants to stay.
Good enough for one person who is willing to tackle my demons
As I conquer theirs.
This beautiful still night as I silently weep gazing into this shattered mirror.
I make a promise to myself to never feel this way again
No more broken mirrors!

Ashley Adorno Poem
Ever cried so hard you could not breathe,
Felt like someone was grasping onto your throat.
Every time you let out a yelp,
You couldn’t help but to choke…
Tears streaming down your face as if the rain couldn’t stop beating down on your round cheeks…
You ever had to sleep on a Pillow drenched with tears?
Everything I feared,
Came true..
There is no more I miss yous & no more fake reasons to see me..
That ship has sailed & so has my dreams of us ever becoming one.
That ship went streaming down on my river of tears.
Ever cried so hard you think the person who hurt you most would walk right through the door.
They aren’t coming back baby girl..
You remind yourself of that constantly...
