I Don't

I don't want to have to be strong 

I didn't need the turmoil, 

the trauma, the grief, the loss, the abuse, the tragic 

situations that life threw at me

All the things that labeled me strong for

SURVIVING......

I never should have endured any of it 

Does being strong mean constantly 

questioning my worth

Whether or not I deserve love 

And hating myself on the daily 

Those thoughts in my head 

keep me up at night

And I've gotten so used to them

It's comforting
