Me

Lost

Lost

And undeserved

This feeling of dread not leaving

It comes and goes

Yet I can’t shake it

I don’t feel worthy

I’m a mess deep down

Those thoughts don’t go away

I may seem fine

But deep down

I’m clawing away inside

I don’t feel like I’m enough

I’m someone that won’t get

“Hey I’m proud of you”

I’m just the failed daughter

The disappointment

The one that will never get it right

Feels like that’s how they see it in their eyes

I made my mistakes

I’m paying for them

Constantly reminded

Yet I still feel like I’m the burden

The unwanted daughter

That will never get it right...
