Am I Worth It?

A poem about how I felt right after the breakup of a serious relationship.

I cannot help but wonder
Am I even worth your time?
I lay down on the floor and bleed
I cannot even cry

In the mirror I see a face
It isn't even me
I don't know who I am today
Or who I'm going to be

Will somebody love me
And hold me close in their arms?
Whisper I love you in my ear
And kiss away my tears?

My heart lay in pieces
All over the floor
But more than anything I wonder
Am I even worth it anymore?

I long to be wanted
I yearn to be needed
Another soul to love with all my heart
Is that so much to ask?

Life hasn't thrown me a break
It's only thrown me pain
I'm tired of continuing on
And living my life in vain

So if you're out there
Please come find me soon
I can't keep waiting in the dark
I need your love to light my way

This is a very nice poem with a lot of emotion portrayed. We all want to find our other half.

You know, it seems to me, if you do what you love and go about making yourself and those around you happy, love has a way of finding you. When you least expect it, it comes and taps you on the shoulder.

Great job on this!
