A Poem - For Me

I will not let you steal my sleep
Give so much freely for you to keep
I will not let you steal my hope 
As you sit and stare while I can’t cope

I will not let you steal my sparkle
Bitch and gossip as if I’m a Markle 
I will not let you steal my voice
Make me feel like I don’t have a choice 

I will not let you steal my smile
Make each interaction into a trial
I will not let you steal my weekend 
Force me to fake smile, act, pretend 

You see if I let you steal all these
And I keep pretending, just to please 
You’ll have stolen all of me thats good
And you should know better you really should 

But one thing I really wish you knew  
Im ok hun, because it’s not me it’s you

​Continuing on in my journey of creativity I tried to give myself a talking to through a poem.  I think I am very guilty of not speaking up, of simply laughing away pain because I don't want to make a situation uncomfortable. But the only real loser in that situation is me because people won't realise they have upset me so the cycle continues. 

I don't think I will ever be the strong, independent, knows her own mind and speaks her truth - kind of woman. But I can try and write like one!
