What Do I Have To Offer Someone - Inspired By Kim Du Puis

I’ve been single for all of my life,
But not because I wanted to be.
I’ve always wanted to be a wife,
But it just hasn’t happened for me.

I look at others who are married
And often wonder how they got there.
It’s not that I have to be carried,
But I do want someone who will care.

What do I have to offer someone?
That’s a question that should have no doubt.
I am good enough for anyone,
A good person, inside and out.
