I know, I will never be enough,
But I just wanted to be loved.

Darling, I will never ask for more.
Please, don't beg me for more.

I have nothing much to give—
Only love, I hope you believe.

                     Darling, aren't
                     my poems
                     worth more
                     than flowers?
                    
                     Darling, isn't
                     my heart
                     enough to
                     make you
                     feel my love?

I thought, you'd
appreciate my
thousand words,

and those
I love yous,

but I realized
that no matter

what I say,
what I do—
everything
for you,

I will never
be a perfect
match for you.

I won't force you to embrace
the whole of me—tip to base.

Darling, I just need someone to love me
and tell me I am loved and I am worthy.

Can you?
Will you?
