Sell Yourself Short

-

How could you be with him
How could you give yourself
To a man of deception 
He used you for eight years
He stole your money and your heart
Still you admit  to me
You made love to him
I’m sure that’s not what he did, in his head
He took from you one more time
You look at it in another way 
Only in a way that will damage your heart
more than it hurts so far.
How could you sell yourself, short?

Don't you look at me. It's so plain to see. There's so much. I'm not the person I want to be. The past has been so crual. There has never been a school To learn how to be human. The Creator must of thought that should have been natural. As humans we simply fought against our original nature, not so admirable. What now shall we ... What now shall I do? How shall this life I construed Change, transform, transcend For the better? To be less fettered. I am the aggregate of all of them who have interacted with me and I with them. Some for good. Some poorly impacted. Some not doing as they should. Others like they're tuned in to the Creator. Formation of the person, an arbitrator of all those interactions. Benefactions, microtransactions, overreactions, counteractions, communal celebration, everyone appreciation. That's it! It takes all of us. If we can just discuss, without a fuss.
