You Are Loved By Me


do I deserve to be loved? 
A question you all ask inside
The fear of rejection you hide
You need to know 
In these words I show
There's so many people who love you 
If you only knew 
That the love you seek
It's in the words you speak 
Kindness and joy
It's in the way you act all coy
You see your loved 
By us and those above 
Just open your eyes to see
How much you mean to me
No one is ever alone
You see god is our home 
And in him we find faith and hope 
To find ways to cope 
You are not the bad words others speak 
Or in the tears that leak
Your in your strength and resilience 
Don't let your light be diminished 
Your story is not yet finished 
Your days will get better 
Because my dear you matter
I hope you read these words and see 
You are already loved by me
