Second Star To The Left, Go Until Dawn

Emily,

My words never seem to reach you the way I want them to, you just tuck me away under the blankets of your mind; ignoring my every warning. Nonetheless, I’ll always be here for you, speaking softly to you, I’ll catch you when you fall.

It’s alright that you question yourself constantly, and that you sometimes look in the mirror just to watch your eyes change colour. After all, it has always somehow helped you in starting to accept change in your life.

You’ve become lost in the reoccurring darkness that seems to surround us all, and it feels like you’re walking a tightrope with a blindfold on. Though the very moment you felt as if you were about to fall, you felt his hands grasp around your waist and pull you to safety. And even though you were afraid to fall in love, when you chose to ignore the risks and let him get close to you; this was the first time you ever listened to me. I hope it won’t be the last.

Emily,

What led you to believe that you were worthless and a loss cause, I’ll never understand. You’ve always seen the light that shines in others, so why not yourself? Weren’t you the one to say that our flaws are what makes beautiful, what makes us human?

You’ve always wished you could express your thoughts through words so delicate and beautiful that the heavens would be in awe. And maybe one day your wish will come true. I hope you one day let your wings grow and sore to heights you’ve only ever dreamt of reaching. There are many that believe in you, the next step is to believe in yourself, believe in us.

Emily,

I know you’re afraid, but you’re so close to the stars… You just need the confidence to reach up and grab them.

Love,

Your Heart

Author notes

A letter written from my heart to myself...

When I take a moment to look deep inside myself and listen to my heart... I know I'm so much more then worthless. I just need to believe in myself... And I hope that one day I can.

It's not very good...
I apologize.

Ps, Emily is my nickname, =]
my real name is Nicole. =/

    of course you had to call yourself emily eh? No worries though, it's still a great piece of writting. Are you getting more into the prose poetry? Because I think that would be quite cool and I hope you write more you it soon

    wow. i love. i love. i love. that line really spoke to me.

    "What led you to believe that you were worthless and a loss cause, I’ll never understand. You’ve always seen the light that shines in others, so why not yourself? Weren’t you the one to say that our flaws are what makes beautiful, what makes us human? "

    I like that part so very very much. I feel the same. Sometimes it's just that we're to blind or too stubborn to actually admit to ourselves that maybe possibly we are beautiful. Sometimes we just need to look in the mirror and say to ourselves, i am beautiful, i am good enough.

    anyways, great write, and i wish you the best of luck fighting your inner demons

    and if you ever need anybody to talk to, i'm here.

    <3
