you're worth more than a message full
of words expressing my lack of merit
you're worth more than an unhappy
frown leading you to nothing but
sleeping with a throbbing chest
and melancholy
you're worth more than the strain
of the atmosphere choking you up
to the point where you can't see
your own words coming out
of your mouth
you're worth more than a spiteful
individual to have you grieve for
their altruism options
you're worth more than unnecessary
hurdles approaching you day by day
and you're especially worth more
than an assurance of words, but only
meant for you to feel the culpability
of my own.
