PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

my whole life

i never really thought i was anything

i thought i was nothing

if anything,

i thought i was just

disgusting

shit

i thought i didn't deserve love

and nobody would ever love me

or even care about me

i was just wallpaper

that could be torn down

and nobody would care,

or even notice

but one day i met you

somehow,

i managed to meet you

and somehow,

you thought i was special

you even dared to love me

and i didn't know why

i still don't know why, really

you changed my whole world

did you know that?

you swooped down

cradled me in your arms

wiped the mud from my eyes

and you made me brand-new

now i feel like i'm worth something

i feel like i'm worth everything

i feel golden

shiny

beautiful

i feel like a princess

or a queen

or something

i feel royal

and special

and worthy

and perfect

and loved

i finally know what it's like

to feel like i'm on the front page

of somebody's

mind

i finally feel like

i'm worth

the oxygen

i waste

and it's so wonderful

to feel this way

i simply

can't

thank you enough

for that

so my only hope in this life

is that i can manage

to make you feel

a fraction

of the way i feel

because of you

i desperately try

to make you see

how wonderful you are

because you really are wonderful

you're the most perfect person i've ever met

your heart is so beautiful

so full of goodness

i love you so goddamn much

and i hate that you don't see

how great you are

in comparison to you,

i still don't think

i'm anything special

really

but it's nice

to feel

like a

princess

anyway
