My Worth

Basic Poem

By Treasure SmithPublished 8 years ago • 1 min read

it wasn’t easy to do that ya know?

to chose my worth over you

i realized that i needed something better

& for some odd reason that wasn’t you

we used to laugh non stop

but things were changing

i realized that you felt differently

c'mon, how could you hate me?

i didn’t feel like your queen

so my

crown was falling

and when it hit the ground

my heart

was broken

you didn’t care about nobody,

so you was mean to the world

you said words shouldn’t matter

and i shouldn’t let them define me

but your words were so smooth

you called me ugly so KINDLY

i guess i’m all to blame for that though,

i guess i’m the reason my heart broke

you mixed yo

words around

like you was

mixing fruit constantly

you never begged for me back,

i always

cried for your honesty

you waisted so much of my time,

& i was to blind to see

that you weren’t even the one for me

you made me cry, & made sure that no one else could see

you broke my heart so many times so i got use to your hurt

i let you in too many times, how could you not know my worth?

heartbreak
