My friends can say in just few words
Which I cannot say in many words.
That I am somebody, I am worthwhile
I am important and I have sweet smile.
Middlingly I expect to love and be loved
Some will recognize me and not be shoved.
Others shall appreciate and cherish me
Hoped and prayed for my happiness be.
I do not seek nor desire compassion or love
I am worthy of it, and I expect one of.
As I read a quote from a dear friend,
Whispering low with joy he’d just send:
“Butterflies don’t know color of their wings
But human knows how beautiful it is.
Likewise you don’t know how good you are
But others can see you are special”.
