"Some people feel like they don't deserve love. They walk away quietly into empty spaces, trying to close the gaps of the past."


Who is worthy?
How do I know?
I see so many others
That I know deserve
Only the best.
So why do I not.
Why do I see myself
As something less?
Am I wrong?
Am I bad?
Did I sin unforgivably?
Is there even such a thing
As unforgivable?
I forgive all,
Except for myself.
What different trait
Do I possess?
Is it just inevitability
That we all hate ourselves?
How do I learn
To let my wrongs go?
To accept the past
And be okay
With having a future? 
I say it's time,
Time to love.
Self-love.
Unconditional.

I wrote this piece to help others understand that they are not alone in their quest to find worth in themselves. I have struggled on the journey for years.
