Limits

by Sunshine   Jun 10, 2020


I can allow those heavy moments
to slip between the cracks of my character
and mock my flaws.

I can let my naivety insult my ego
in the dark.

But I can't let you see my pain
scattered like powder in the light.

I can't let you break my soul again.

I am broken
but my pieces are whole.

    I love the imagery of the whole poem. My favorite line: “ But I can't let you see my pain scattered like powder in the light.” So beautiful!

    I see Rania, I meant::
    I hop you let your strength, instead of your naivety, insult your ego...in the dark.

    reflecting on

    I can let my naivety insult my ego
    in the dark.
