Stranger to your soul

Stranger to your soul

You look in that glass 
you don't know who that is 
you study those eyes 
but they don't seem to move where you tell them to 
you study those lips 
but they don't speak 
when you want them to
you look at your fingers 
they don't feel connected 
you look at your legs
And watch them move on 
their own 
you feel broken 
you don't know who you are 
you don't know what you like 
you fear yourself 
when people speak 
you don't hear 
you go back-and-forth 
Like tug-a-war 
you know what's right 
yet you choose the wrong 
and in the end 
Only you pay the cost 
the hate takes over 
you despise yourself 
you're a stranger to your own soul.

Oh girl thank you haha I just write what I'm feeling. I'm better at poetry when I'm depressed it's just how I cope, find a way to use poetry to cope with something hard, something tragic, and see if that helps ?  youll become a better writter and it will clear your mind. Good vibes ?

I use to self-sabbotage.....but not as much as the past.   Tapping into my unconscious brought up areas of healing that helped build up self love for myself.  I could identify with you poem.
