I'm trying to convince myself deep down in dark parts of me That I do not deserve love for many reasons all of which Are coming across the same in my head because I have never been Able to hold on long enough to something that wants to stay But my body begs for you to lay down with me and tell me That I am not alone, for once in my life I am not alone In this race to figure out how to love myself first So that you can love me after.

Part of my "Infinite Parts" series, dedicated to you.
