You say
I don’t convey
what I’m worth
but somehow
you are the one
who makes me
feel worthless.
So I look elsewhere
searching for
someone to know me
and still love me.
But I can’t find it…
until I’m alone
in my dark room
and I develop
the negatives
to reveal you.
And I hear You say…
“beautiful girl,
I know you.
I love you.
Stop looking outside.
I’m right here
beside you.”
Your love
will find a way
to get out of here
out of the darkness.
Your love
will light the way;
it will lead me
into the arms of peace.
