Shining Star

Shining Star

Am I who i want to be?
Or what I know you want me to,
burying myself in pleasing you.
Forgetting who I am,
depending on you to build me.

Am i too trusting?
For allowing you inside my mind,
without second thought, giving away
the only thing I had left of me
until I am completely made up of your imagination. 

Can I find myself?
Let go of your wantings,
fly free with wings of my choosing.
Independent and getting to know my whole
without letting you interfere.

Can I love again?
Get out of this hole that is
forgetting the pain,
moving on to someone new,
accepting of me and my flaws.

Will I be happy?
Having left you behind.
Living life as it should be lived.
Shining bright like a star,
being able to shine by itself.

I love this because your words represent a journey I have personally travelled...I am now a lone star shining brightly, happy in my own small universe...pinned?

Being Me

Oh this is exquisite! Like Marion, I too have travelled this path. I am happy in myself now and things are way better. Still looking for someone else to love though.  Excellent poem x
