if i cannot sing
      and cannot touch
i will prove that
       i can heal myself
through the act
       of healing others

You stand there and laugh
At your pedestal  
As if you’re better than me
But are you?

We both come from dirt
And will be dirt.

I only pretend with pretenders
And contend with contenders
I'm only giving to the givers
And forgiving to forgivers

I'm only strange with strangers
And dangerous with dangers
I'm only hateful to the haters
And traitorous to traitors

I spent years of my life waiting for someone that would  
love me
care for me
respect me...

But no one did.

That is when I learned the power of
Self-love
Self-care
Self-respect
