“You Don’t” Poetry Series

I seek opinions
Not really to change how I live because of them
But to hear what you’re thinking
What everyone is thinking
I hate that I do that
I seek out opinions of others that don’t matter
And I get hurt,
every single time
But I come crawling back to that stupid reassurance I think I need
Why?
Because part of me cares, cares about what the world has to say
It doesn’t matter though
My past doesn’t define me
God knows every single thing I’ve done
Every mistake made
Every sin committed
Every point missed
He knows about all of it and I am forgiven
Forgiven from what you think is irreversible
My God can do that and my God loves me that much
-Jules
