You Do Matter

November 13, 2009
By Anonymous

You are beautiful.
You mean something.
You matter.
You are loved.
You have friends.

People do care.
People do love.
People have faith.
People are kind.
People do trust.

I am beautiful.
I do loved.
I am loved.
I do care.
I do matter.

I have faith.
I am kind.
I do trust.
I have friends.
I do matter.

And so do you.

I guess just being loved inspired me. I realized a long time ago that I really do matter. I felt that others should know that they matter, too.
