Poem -
She Isn't
120920
And sometimes,
in the quiet moments,
she could hear herself think
About all the things she thought she was,
like worthy and loved,
and maybe even good enough
But even then she knew,
she is no one's first choice,
mostly not chosen at all
She was 'that' but never 'this,'
she was close
but never quite close enough
And in the quiet she understands,
it's her view that's wrong,
her mind that's playing tricks
Because if she were the things
that she thought she was,
things would be different
She would be 'this.'
She would be closest.
She would be loved.
But she is not.
