A poem about the way view my situation.

What component makes up love?

And turns it so intense,

Is it something from above?

That makes it this immense?

Why I can’t be stoic, cruel, and very vain,

Why must I wish to be these things to see if my feelings change?

My heart and soul I’ve given to share,

But at the end nobody cares.

I live afflicted with all these fears,

Of love I’m addicted and that is clear.

I am not worthy of being loved greatly and with sincerity, I’m never valued, I’m never chased my worth has no integrity.

I’m only played, I’m only taunted and of course let’s not forget deceived, I ask for Gold when I’m worth Silver and why I can’t perceive.

Perhaps it’s product of my youth;

This impatience that I feel,

But this is the only truth that my experiences reveal.

I’m not worthy of being happy I can tell with each deep breath, it’s so pathetic! Many failed suicide attempts I’m not even worthy of my death.

At the end it doesn’t matter, there’s not much that’s left to do,

But if I’m wrong I beg you tell me;

What am I worth to you?

    If only i had this amazing talent for writing i would be writing pieces similar to these, because i feel like this sometimes. if you have a gift like this, I think you’re worth big bucks! lol. In the sense, that, you could touch anybody’s heart help them heal.

    You’re worth skies you’re worth pain, you’re worth the things you say in vain. You’re worth much more than what you wish to be, so come along and be with me….

    Oh my god, it’s as if I belong here. All the comments are written in Grammar Nazi form, lol. Well…except the first one, but I can let that one slide, haha. And I proceed to quote myself!

    Ahh, another great one.
    You always find ways to surprise me!
    Just when I think it sounds like another poem, it ends up unfamiliar to me. :)

    Never doubt your worth; if someone else can’t see it, it is their problem and not yours.

    Very heartful poem. I know how that all feels so if those emotions are your present ones. Keep your chin up. Keep smiling :)

    “You’re not loved because you’re valuable, you’re valuable because God loves you.”

    “Of love I’m addicted and that is clear” – Please don’t make an idol out of love.. or any person for that matter. I can tell you from experience that it always leads to heartache.

    Lovely piece, God bless you!
