I wonder if you know That you make my heart flutter white, My face flush red, And my mouth pull into a pink grin.
I wonder if you know, I could be yours For eternity And it would still not be Enough.
I wonder if you know, That you're the first And the last To make me feel Genuinely worth it.
I hope you don't mind My confusion at your Kindness towards me.
I hope you don't mind My instinctual suspicion Of your acts of service and love.
It isn't because of you.
I wonder if you know How much work it will take To get me to accept That I am worthy of your kindness Or to get me to understand That this isn't temporary.
I wonder if you know That I will always try my hardest To understand why you think I'm worth it.
I wonder if you know, I think all of this within a glance at you.
"They say you can't love anybody without loving yourself first. I call *******. I've never loved myself. But you? Dear God, Loving you made me forget what hating myself felt like."
