The Most Hateful of Women
Today I am without knowing,
today i'm just for pain
I have neither love or friendship today
today I need
to rip my heart out
and put it under my bed, forever keeping It safe.
Today that dry thorn turns green,
today is the mourning day of my kingdom,
today dismayed unload my chest
discouraged lead.
I can't with my heart.
And I seek companionship within my journals
looking fondly at the knives,
distracting myself with others' words,
and I think of the highest bells
for a clear head fall.
My mind nevertheless turned dark
If not why?
I do not know why,
my heart would write one last letter
I would ink from my heart
a source of syllables, goodbyes and gifts,
and there you stay, the world would say.
I was born on a bad month.
I only have one penalty
that is worth more than all the joy.
A love left me with my arms down
and I cannot wish them more.
Don't you see how disappointed my mouth is,
how unhappy are my eyes?
The more I contemplate myself, the sadder I become:
cut this pain with what scissors?
Yesterday, tomorrow, today
suffering for everything
my heart, melancholy vessel,
killer of dying nightingales.
I have a lot of heart.
Today, be discouraged,
I am the heartiest of women,
and for the most, the most hateful.

I am from Moldova, one of the poorest countries in Europe. When something life-altering happened to me and my family, we had no one here but ourselves. This was my journey with acceptance through writing.
