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
