Appreciate Me

Show me to heavens 
door so sweet 
Give to me the love 
I have craved 
Make my heart skip 
every other beat
Please help my lost 
soul to be saved

Taking away all of 
my past pains
That have in truth 
held me back
Calm my mind so 
I’m again sane
Give me a strength 
for all I lack

Answer all my 
unanswered questions
Help to build me up, 
not let me down
Explore each of my 
many dimensions 
While letting me stay 
safe and sound

And if my insecurities 
begin to shine through 
Need me and show 
me I’m much more
Just know in my life, 
all I ever need is you
Appreciate me so 
much more than before
