Left to shiver in the...

I feel pathetic and insecure

Maybe that is the problem

I've got so many , that I've got to solve them

Maybe then I'll shine like the shiniest gem

A beautiful flower plucked off it's stem

A pretty dress with a lovely blue hem

Or maybe I'm just the string hanging off of the hem

The weeds around the flower

Soil in the bed of the river

Left to shiver in the cold

At least I've got a heart full of soul
