I Wish I could love myself Or See my own beauty that others apparently see I wish I could feel my body’s worth and potential I wish I could live to be the best me To fill myself with nutrition and goodness To have wild ambition and love free To fight for my dreams and feel full and high on life Why can’t I do this for me ? Why do I poison myself with sugar and gin Why don’t I get up and move Almost brain dead, catatonic old and to broken Just a big disappointment to me My own expectations have fallen and gone My self respect doesn’t exist I exhaust from self reproaching jokes and I don’t expect anything of me (C) Ashley Kane Fb

I gave up on me
I Wish I could love myself Or See my own beauty that others apparently see I wish I could feel my body’s worth and potential I wish I could live to be the best me To fill myself with nutrition and goodness To have wild ambition and love free To fight for my dreams and feel full and high on life Why can’t I do this for me ? Why do I poison myself with sugar and gin Why don’t I get up and move Almost brain dead, catatonic old and to broken Just a big disappointment to me My own expectations have fallen and gone My self respect doesn’t exist I exhaust from self reproaching jokes and I don’t expect anything of me (C) Ashley Kane Fb
