graciously bowing
is not the same
as giving up bits of my true self
I give up my dreams, my true selves,
and I wait for thanks that never comes.
:-(
CHOOSE: love or anger ?
in all honesty: I never deserved thanks,
I was running from myself.
It looked like - I sacrificed for another,
but really: I was afraid to BE who I AM.
CHOOSE: love or anger ?
I hoped the love and thanks of others would be enough.
that it would be easier to gain than....
than....
than....
than.... the love and acceptance I can give myself.
CHOOSE: love or anger ?
I am back at the beginning: true to self ? or fear of self ?
A smile.
It is ok.
grace.
