Lesson learnt

Lesson learnt

How did I end up back here?

Driving around head full of fears

No escape from emotional hell

On the past trying hard not to dwell

The same mistake will be repeated

Until the lesson is learned

And so I chose another

Man who does not see my worth

Why was I so stupid, why did I trust again?

Feeling vulnerable and worthless

I close my eyes and hang my head

To start again seems overwhelming

Where do I begin?

Should I stay and hope and pray

That one day things will change

But I know I have to face this

I know I must see my worth

I can only change, me

I can only heal my hurt

I need to get to know me

Give myself some time

Not look to another to validate the women I ve become.

Terrific poem, Louise....hey I had this 'chasing pavements' by Adele moment while reading, the song flashed in my head (perhaps my favourite song) yeah very crisp articulation that relates a scenario that the reader has felt and probably will again, very relate-able write....hey the future is to be appreciatedĀ not predicted, life is full of risks...all around cool write...have a good evening
