Forever, my best friend
It will all go one day,
The pain, the suffering, the rejection and addictions,
Loving so hard and not being loved back,
Giving so much and getting so little,
One day I'd be able to look myself in the mirror and be proud of who I've become,
The scars of depression will exist no more,
The insecurities I have will taunt me no more,
There'd be no eye bags because I wouldn't have to cry anymore,
I wouldn't have to slit my wrists, stab myself or burn my flesh just to have some fun alone time,
I wouldn't have to sit in the bathtub trying to wash off all the bad memories floating in my head,
The hatred from words from the mouth of people would infect me no more cos my voice would be the only thing that matters to me.
I'd finally be loved and treated with respect not having to loose myself just to get appreciation from someone I call my lover,
My relationships would yield good fruits and not just a sad love story that even Adele doesn't want to write,
I would be of help to people and not just a liability that even pets reject as an owner,
The acne, marks, pimples, foldings or fat would bother me no more because I'd still feel I'm beautiful,
One day, someday, eventually,soon ,I'd be back
But first let me make forever my best friend.
