Self Worth


Girls, Teenagers, Women

In ways they're all the same Obsessed with looks and only blame...

Themselves no one else

So many females with no self worth

We watch them every day

Knowing they carry shame

Always thinking they aren't good enough

Only caring about what others think

Feeling that they need a man

They do all they can

To feel loved, appreciated, and important

Trying to fill an empty space but failing

No self worth, no confidence

Giving themselves up to people not worthy

Men take advantage

Of their inability to gain independence

Females tend to trust

Learning the hard way it is a bust

When all they need is confidence 

Not a man or friend to tell them they matter

They tend to think so

Which is why they shatter

Ladies don't be this

Don't do this

You are worth so much more

Which brings us back to the beginning

There's no need to hide behind a door

Whether its by makeup or clothes

Females acting like they are sinning

Just because they don't feel they meet standards

But ladies you are sadly mistaken

No reason to feel shaken A

ll you need to do is

Be Confident

Be Independent

Be Happy with yourself

The key to all these is simple

Be the one with Self Worth
