Inner Joy

Featured Illustration: Virginia Moreno

I never felt so loved

Being unloved

I never felt so secure

In my insecurities

 

I never felt so sustained

In my loneliness

 

To be so supported

And alone

 

The warmth

Penetrates through my skin

Awakening myself

With a glowing tinge

 

It eradicates

Every doubt

 

Every need 

To be someone else

 

Every wish

To find someone to call my own

 

I’ve never been more alone

But less lonely

More broken

And yet closer to healing

 

Than with myself
