Best

The best I can do

Is to be the best I can be

To lift my eyes

And see the light

To walk with my shoulders back

With my spine in place

With a smiling face

And to see myself

As the best that I can be

I Deserve Better

Than your weak charm,

Ghosting prowess,

See-through eyes,

Sweet little lies,

You.

For every wrong thing you did
For every unkind word
I made an excuse
For you
It took awhile for me
To realize
I really do
Love myself more
