Issues

 Issues 

 

Issues are something I am not lacking... of them, I have many for sure...  

I have trust issues because I’ve been screwed over and hurt too many times to count...  

But that doesn’t stop me from having a heart and a love that is pure...  

Though that’s just one of my many issues. I have quite a large amount!  

  

Let’s see... I really have a hard time sharing... because of past cheaters, I have jealousy issues...  

Though I don't let it stop me from getting attached, and having to trust that this one won’t be like so many of the rest, only for good reason could I try to understand...  

I overthink a lot and that can be a problem, I can break my own heart and cry myself through a box of tissues...  

That one I am desperately trying to work on, going up against my brain... taking a stand!  

  

I have extreme anxiety issues, especially when it comes to people I don’t know...  

Which is one of the reasons I chill, to keep me from losing my mind, to keep me sane...  

I bet if I could sell tickets for people to watch what’s constantly going on in my head, I’d sell out of tickets to that show...  

But I’m not sure how many people could handle a look inside my brain!  

  

I have really bad insecurities, never feeling pretty or like I am enough...  

Which makes it hard to accept compliments since I don’t see myself that way...  

I love fiercely and it can be hard to find a balance when you spent most of your life feeling unloved, growing up tough...  

Not just in the lack of hugs and affection but also in the words they used to say...  

  

These are just the biggest... there are way more issues than that... we can leave those for another time!
