Depreciation of Self-Deprecation

What will she think?

What would he say?

What will they do?

How would you react?

Do you mind?

Are you alright?

May I interrupt?

Am I enough?

Do you think I am enough?

Does he think I matter?

Will anyone notice if I disappear?

Will anyone care?

What will they say when I'm not there?

It's none of my business.

Mind your own business.

What is my business?

I am my business.

Me, myself, and I.

I care.

I matter.

I am enough.

No I will not give this up.
