Dear Life:
From the poetry book, 'Kiss Me or Kill me: Set Me Free' By Amargeaux Rai

I always wondered:
If I had never tried
To harm myself
To kill myself
To leave this earth,
If I had never tried
To stand up for myself,
To love myself,
To see my worth,
If I had never wanted
To do more
Be more
Say more
See more
Save more time
For what really mattered
For what made me matter
To myself
For myself
And smiled a little bit more
If I had never been to sore
From all the times
You dragged me
Through the mud
And rocks
Hot coals
And broken glass
Cutting me
Right down to my soul
If I had never seen
The Absolute Bottom
And been so BROKEN
If I had never been able
To stand up
After all that --
After ALL of that...
Had I had
Never
Ever
Ever
Been brought so low...
To feel as underappreciated
As unappreciated
And mistreated as you, Life...
Now that I'm standing again...
Would I love and Appreciate you this much?
