worthy : a note to self

When I look at the things you settled for

My heart truly aches for you

When I realise the abandonment and aloneness you knew

Sometimes my being splits entirely in two

With the pain of it

When it gets hard to stand

I know its because you need a hand

To reach for the healthier thing

And stop the pattern of pushing yourself

Due to lack of self care

If only you could see yourself through my eyes

You would know how precious you are

If only you could love yourself as I do

New paths would open for you

And peace would come

So rest now my darling

In this loving embrace

Of my care and attention

And let yourself know

That you are worthy

Of the things your soul longs for

Peace

Joy

Surrender

Relaxation

Comfort

And most of all

Love
