Read My Name

How do I really write a song

What should I say

How I am learning to love myself

And it’s hard today

There are parts of me 

I do not want to show

Things I needed to know

Like the sentence no. 

Is a complete sentence

That I am worthy of work

I can show up for myself

I can tell myself nice words

No one has to do it for me

And when I fall and forget

I will crawl right back

Because I am loved

From within

And isn’t that all that matters. 

What love you have inside you

What we take and what we give. 

I hope one day in the future they can read my name

And say this one was a good one. 

She showed us all.
