Deserving

Ask yourself this: who is deserving of your love? Is it your mom's boyfriend? The one who has to creep around, and tighten his grip around your throat to minimize your screams. Is it the guy with tattoos you see around the neighbourhood? You've heard he's been with other girls, but maybe you could change him. Maybe you could give him a taste of his own medicine, and he'd fall in love with you with a snap of your fingers. Is it the nerdy boy who sits in the third throw? Sure, his shyness overtakes him, but he's sweet. Isn't that what a guy should be? Or is it... her. Who? Me? Yes you! With the crystal eyes, and heart of gold! Aren't you deserving of your own love? I see you shake your head, and I sigh in disappointment. So, what exactly was your plan? To put all your love into someone you didn't even know? You shrug. Oh, so you must suppose that the only person who doesn't deserve love is yourself.
