Loved Ones

a poem by Sheia Scott

The ones who can hurt us at the drop of a dime
The ones who know just what to say to take you back into time
The ones who can make you feel good when you’re in your weakest state of mind

The ones who make you fight when you hit bottom ground
The ones who make you feel like you ain’t shit and you have no worth

The ones who can make you laugh when you feel like just exploding
The ones who can make you cry when you thought you had it locked

The ones who can put you on top, the ones that can make you drop

But the love they give
The love they share is something that’s so beautiful
And something to hold on to

Cherish your loved ones
