Wonder of My Worth

When wonder of my worth erupts
         and threatens everything I know
Volcanoes of emotion rush
             imparting such a mighty blow

Oh why, to be so insecure
                to feel unwanted and alone
Assuming, surely it’s my fault
    When no one’s calling on the phone

It must be me, not smart enough
              no college gave me a degree
Perhaps, it’s just now I’m too old
    There's nothing left for them to see

So unattractive I must be
      Perhaps, I sing the same old song
I try too hard to fit the mold
                 to finally feel that I belong

I’ve wasted oh, so many tears  
             of my existence on this earth
To try to know just how it feels
             to never wonder of my worth
