Self-worth

I’m seeing the forest through the trees

Stepping ever-forward despite the unease

Sick and tired of being ready to please

Without ever thinking ‘is this a disease’?

The road less taken, the path less tested

Sometimes brings hope, sometimes detested

‘Life’s about the journey’, that’s never contested

And with self-reflection, past time’s reinvested

Knowing oneself must always come first

Loving oneself until you will burst

Quenching the inner gap – filling your thirst
Why did I always see things so reversed?

Now that I’ve started – don’t want to look back

Want to remain on the right track

I’m sick of giving myself so muck unnecessary flack

For every little think that I thought I did lack

Sometimes mistakes can breed eventual success

Sometimes what’s missing, we now can address

Sometimes initial sadness can instigate progress

And sometimes what you need, you already posses
