Poetry: Be Proud Of Who You Are

I want to reach out and help you
But I feel useless like there is nothing I can do
I can see the pain in your eyes
I can see through your lies –
Saying that you’ll be alright
This isn’t a battle you have to fight
You don’t have to do this alone
I’ll be there for you, just ask, pick up the phone
Whatever your problem, big or small
I’ll help you to pick yourself up and walk tall

I know that you can do
Anything you put your mind to
And so does everyone else too
Have a little self belief and be proud of who you are
It doesn’t matter that you’re not rich and that you don’t drive a fancy car
You’re you, the one who means so much too so many
To those who don’t care if you don’t have a single penny

 

What do you think?
