Tell me that I’m beautiful, even when I don’t agree
My ugliness far deeper than what others see in me

Tell me that I’m worthy, that I’m just enough for you
Even when my heart is heavy and my mood is only blue

Show me that you’re here to stay, not going anywhere
Even when my burdens seem too difficult to share

Shower me with kindness, bathe me in your light
My flowers have all withered in the darkness of the night

Remind me that I’m strong, and that I’ll be okay
Be the one who tells me all the things I cannot say
