Her worth to you is far greater than mine And perhaps her love for you as well You tell me I'm yours, this is true But these thoughts weight down on my mind Names flash across your screen I wonder who it could be? Heart pounding with curiosity Though I dare not take a peek Blind my eyes and close my ears Don't think too hard, it'll bring you to tears Though I've seen those pictures still online And I hear those whispers that are said so carefully *Almost as if they are afraid, Of c r u s h i n g my heart* With words of comfort, he tells me silence "You are wonderful, You are beautiful " But the voices that scream tell me otherwise, crying out Y O U  W I L L  N E V E R  B E  E N O U G H Even if my heart is riddled with fear Inferiority to the girl who once stood I'll try my hardest to live up to her To receive the same love and the same worth But still.... it hurts -

Worth & Fear
Her worth to you is far greater than mine And perhaps her love for you as well You tell me I'm yours, this is true But these thoughts weight down on my mind Names flash across your screen I wonder who it could be? Heart pounding with curiosity Though I dare not take a peek Blind my eyes and close my ears Don't think too hard, it'll bring you to tears Though I've seen those pictures still online And I hear those whispers that are said so carefully *Almost as if they are afraid, Of c r u s h i n g my heart* With words of comfort, he tells me silence "You are wonderful, You are beautiful " But the voices that scream tell me otherwise, crying out Y O U  W I L L  N E V E R  B E  E N O U G H Even if my heart is riddled with fear Inferiority to the girl who once stood I'll try my hardest to live up to her To receive the same love and the same worth But still.... it hurts -
