Am I Worth It?



If I was the sun, you’d be a rainbow.
In order to see your colors I have to take the millions of drenching raindrops.
Your beauty is worth it though.
You are worth it.

If I was a flower, you’d be the gardener.
Without you I feel I cannot bloom into the best flower I want to be.
The droughts are worth it.
You are worth it.

The drugs, the pills, the drinks,
It’s worth it.
The scars, the pain, the heartache,
Is it worth it?
Are you worth it?

If I was the blood, you’d be the child.
You think its cool to see me, unaware of the blade you are holding.
But the red is worth it.
I wanted to be worth it too.
— Am I worth it?
