I am not worthless

I can be confusing, irritating, and maddening

But I am not worthless

I can be enchanting, disarming and loving

But I am not worthless

I make mistakes, I fall and break

Still, I am not worthless

I am not Catherine the Great, and yet I am still one of The Greats

Because, I am not worthless

I fly with my eyes closed, I fall with my heart broke

I run until my feet bleed, I shout until my voice ends

I sing, I dance, I write, I love

Because I am worthy and will never be worthless

I may stumble along the way, hurting instead of healing

I may blame others for my past mistakes or cry the days of heartache

I may become blind to the love I deserve

I may be less worthy, but I will never be worthless

I know who I am

I've learned each strength and flaw, memorized the parts where I'm whole and hollow

I know each smiling facade and still-bleeding wound, remember every incident that chipped off a piece of me leaving me a violin untuned

I may not always seem okay, but I know who I am

I am me, the worthy, the whole and the hollow
