Self-Worth

Am I worth more than just a moan? Do you wish to say hello, At the end of the day am I more than just a fantasy? When you say hi, Are you thinking of all the ways you'd like to watch me break? Do you realize that the things I feel, To you might seem unreal, Though to me they make up everything I am I sit in the same spot, Where we always used to talk Even though you're not here talking to me I can hold a full-length conversation In the end losing every part of what i built I long for the day I could just go back in time Sadly, what i have today, Is what I'm stuck with right now Somedays it's so easy, Other days I cry to sleep All I ever wanted was to be perfect, Though perfect is so much harder than it seems If I could do it all over, My only wish is that I would have done it better Tonight, I bow my heads to pray Knowing he's gotten me this far, As long as I keep believing, Maybe then all hope wouldn't be lost There are bulbs brighter than me, Though I am determined to see, That there is some greater good in me Even though I can't express it, Please don't lose all faith in me Please don't give up on me

Rather, I’d say don’t give upon yourself, breathe easy
