I see all these couples around me
their love radiating so big
laughter so loud
I can't hear my thoughts
he kisses her with so much passion
the sun becomes a spotlight
that shines on only them
I sit in the back all alone
no company but my lovable phone
and I'm suddenly thinking to myself
"Why can't I have that?"
My friends sit around me
talking about their past, future,
and wannabe lovers
only I can't relate
because boys only see me as
"Too nice" or
"Not good enough"
I'm forever sitting in the back
watching the action go on
but never taking part
too scared of what people will think
because of a boy who said
that I wasn't good enough
My friends ask for my opinion
but all i can offer is shrugged shoulders
with mumbles of "I don't know"
and I'm suddenly thinking to myself
"Why can't I relate to my friends about boys?"
he asks me for my number
innocently flirting with me
leading me on into his heart
only to turn around and ask me
"Who's your friend? She's cute."
suddenly my confidence is gone
heart broken into pieces
and my throat choked up
as I think to myself
"Will I ever be good enough?"
but I trudge on
forever hoping that one day
a boy will love me
and cherish me for my worth
kiss my lips
make me smile
see me as his whole damn world
because I am worth everything
I am not a penny
but a dollar
I'm worth more than the boy
who said that I wasn't
his pride and joy
I am good enough
to deserve love
even if I can't see that now
