Deserve You

Written for someone when I thought the relationship could be more.

The only thing that
I think is
Even if I could be
With you
I don’t deserve you
You got it all
I have nothing
People want you
They don’t want me
You have a talent
I can write sentences
People know who you are
They don’t want me around
You are a gift to everyone
Regardless if they hear it
You speak volumes through
All your songs you sing
You are you and
I don’t deserve you

Sounds so sad. It leads me to believe you have little confidence in yourself. I hope I am wrong.

I’VE FELT LIKE THIS BEFORE, AND IT’S NOT AN ATTRACTIVE QUALITY. WHEN EVER YOU FEEL LIKE THIS, YOU HAVE TO LOOK AT YOURSELF, AND SEE YOUR OWN VIRTUES, BUT BELIEVE ME WHEN I SAY, I CAN DEFINITELY UNDERSTAND

Deserve You
