Well, I thought you were my friend,
Someone who could stick by me no matter what
Again, I find myself wrong.
Just like many others, you run away from your problems.
You don’t face them.
I can’t help…
I’m sorry, that just appears to be who I am.
I’m sorry if I make your life more miserable.
My bad, I didn’t mean to.
Thank you for telling me that I’m not worth being in other’s lives.
I guess I just didn’t feel depressed enough.
Maybe I’ll try to lay low for a while and forget having friends.
Maybe I should just forget my past and the future.
I’m not worth it anyways.
I guess I’ll just be someone who walked into your life but you forgot.
Apparently, I’m not worth it.
Others could forget about me and never know I’m there.
Forget me; delete any contact you have of me.
You don’t want me in your life.
I guess I better delete yours and everyone else’s contacts too.
I’m not enough for people.
Here’s the truth though.
I matter a lot to everyone.
I’m worth dying for, and Jesus proved it.
He died on the cross for me.
That’s enough to tell me that I am worth something.
Jesus loves me even if no one else does.
He died for me for a reason,
To save me from the fright of Hell.
He doesn’t want me there,
I’m worth something.
Even if I’m not worth anything to you,
I am to another person.
That, I could tell you, is proved.
Just to let you know too,
Jesus died for you too.


The author's comments:
I don't know if this piece really well represents Christians, because of the negative things said in the start of the poem. But the ending part is true, Jesus Christ died for everyone. He died to keep us away from the torture of Hell. I believe this, and I hope you do too.
