worth


Although you may not see it,

I do.

I see your worth.

You shine bright like a diamond,

but you only see the coal.

There is so much more than

the shell of the person you think you are.

You are so much more.

Although you don't see it now,

you will see it in the future.

The future that shines bright as the sun,

as long as you don't cover it with the clouds.

 

You may not see the worth

when the struggles,

the challenges,

the hopelessness,

greets you like an old friend.

But those are only to

help you see the worth.

the love.

the peace.

the hope.

 

But as long as you

hold on just a while longer,

you will see.

You will see the worth of all of it.

I promise you.
