self worth

you.
i find that it's in you...in them
that's where i find it..
and you are not perfect.
neither are they..
you all don't seem to notice
or understand what it does to me..
when you say..
when you don't say..
when you do..
when you don't do..

but..but
i can't get upset.
because i knew in the first place what i was getting myself into..
when i placed my worth...
in the hands of those not worthy..
and besides you all were ignorant of my heart's secrets..

don't take offense
because im not worthy to define you..
im not worthy to tell you who you all are..or how much you're worth..
because i am not perfect..or even good.

but how...how do i put my worth in You?
how do i find my confidence...my definition in You?
how do i stop caring?
is that what it takes?
to stop caring?....
but how do i do that in a loving way?

SIGH.
"my happiness is found in less of me and more of You"


k..i'll try that.
come take Your place.
