Maybe One Day


Maybe one day, people will see their worth.

They won't compare themselves to that person they admire

Because they'll have their own dreams they aspire.

No more "I'm not good enough,"

Or "It would be better without me,"

Because we

Need to be there for each other.

Love each other

Like a sister or brother.

Tell me your problems

And I'll tell you mine.

I got nothing to hide.

Take a look deeper inside

Don't bottle up your feelings and hide them away

Because everything will be okay.

Whether it be now

Or in a hundred days.
