The Only One I Trust

by Charlotte   Dec 13, 2004


Sitting in the dark yet another night spent alone
This deserted house has become my sanctuary
My escape from this cruel and hurtful world
I am my only company but I don’t mind
For I have no desire to go out, to be around people
I am my own bestfriend, the only one I can trust
The only one who never lies to my face
Or tries to convince me of what I’m supposedly not
I know that I’m a failure, that I’m worthless and that I’m useless
I know that I’m fat, that I’m ugly and that I’m weak
Though the rest of the world can’t seem to see this in me
They see things in me that just aren’t true, I am none of those things
I am not beautiful, I am not smart and I am not strong
I am not someone that everyone would love to call a friend
They have it in their head that I’m my own worst enemy
Just because I tell myself these apparently “bad” things
But in reality I’m the only one not afraid of the truth
Not afraid to admit to the world what I truly am

    Again this poem is good, but you seem to always set your poems out the same way. Don't be afraid to try something new, teeheehee. I like your poetry so I am gonna eat a fortune cookie for you. Ok, your fortune is: 'Grace is the divine ability to cope with every circumstance'. Feel better? I sure do. Mmm cookie...
