Inner Child ( Dear Me)

77 13 1
                                    

I pulled out pieces of myself,
To fit into the spaces of you,
But you're all curved lines and I jagged edges,
And to suffer in agony from your cuts is not love,
No matter how I try to convince myself otherwise.

— A Childhood Puzzle That Will Never Be Completed.

- A.A

As a child, I was told punishment was love. Success was acceptance and to make someone proud was to be worthy. The truth is I could never be that person. That vision of perfection and love was always flawed.
I just never realized it when I was younger.
