How can I love you when I can hardly love myself
I was never taught love or even self respect
My father failed my household.
I only known what I seen
And that's a abusive father , and a mother to weak to leave
I don't know how to love but I know how it feels to be used
I'm just learning how to pray ,So I'm praying not to confuse the two
I don't deserve this goodness
That's why I have this wall up
I asked why you've never asked about my past
You told me "it doesn't matter "
that's something I've never heard ,
all those other boys would've choose the latter
Why are you so good to me when I'm not good to myself ?
The only love I've ever seen was in fairytales and movies
Smiling through the pain , ‘
adjusting to the rough that's my everyday routine.
Thanking God he made me tough .
But with you , you told me I don't have to be
Told me let my guard down ,
let's pray ,
bended knee..
I think I found my king .
And you have loved me into a queen ...

lovely write...very heart felt...i am glad for you
rebel conformity, such a good write, coming from a unique place, I love the lines
'Thanking God he made me tough .
But with you , you told me I don't have to be
Told me let my guard down ,'
to the reader, this shows the power of the narrative (you don't always have to be strong if you feel safe}
and character revelation as well, truly a quality poem, I enjoyed this, tribute
Glad you enjoyed it .

Aww thank you !
Hi rebel,
Such beautiful words. I think you have found the path to your pasts eradication, for your prose is saturated with the lullaby of love. You have discovered your King, and He, His Queen. Now you live for the today's and the tomorrows. The yesterdays no longer can harm you. So, feel the glowing warmth of love, and may you bask in it forever. Great write. Welcome to Cosmo.
Peace and Love,
