my heart has been replaced
by a large stone
which sits heavy in my chest
pumping only doubt and denial
viscous
fortifying
steeling my being
against the inevitable moment
when you decide
I’m not worth it
Fiction, and other made-up stories
Still histrionic, still a bookwhore; just faking competence because of my kid.

I can’t “like” this because I’m not willing to take any chance you might think I agree with it. That stone is something you need to leave behind, FBG, just as you leave behind clothes that have become threadbare, or discard food that has spoiled and is no longer edible. You are worth it, and anyone who cares about you — or even gotten to know you here — is well aware that you are worth it.
Thanks Ned. I appreciate that. I’ve just been having some downer days.
I get it. That’s when it’s nice to be reminded that how we feel isn’t necessarily how others feel about us 😉
I like this poem, for what it is. But Ned has a point, but then, Ned’s not you! happy new year, you!! I don’t like to see people sad, but I like the way you bring your emotion to the table. It makes you worth it.
Thank you! I get so down about being single during the holidays.
yeah, I understand that, but sometimes it’s just best, and being alone is not necessarily a bad thing
I have a hard time with being alone. Which is odd, considering how much time I spend alone.
I LOVE spending time alone, I’m alone much of the time. People are so…human.
I spend a lot more time alone now because of my anxiety. I used to thrive off of social interaction. Now I have too much social media interaction. lol
Dear, I know there are many who will disappoint, but that is more about them than you. You are definitely worth it ❤
