Perspective


"No one can make you feel inferior without your consent" ~Eleanor Roosevelt
And I won't give you my consent.
I won't let you break me down and make me feel like I don't matter.
I DO MATTER but maybe not to you.
I deserve better than this.
I deserve to feel special
and original.
If you can't see that I'm an individual
with emotions and needs,
you don't deserve me.
And I don't deserve to be hurt one more time
I don't deserve to sit here with no one to talk to
thinking about you
and knowing you don't think about me
So thanks, Eleanor Roosevelt,
for putting things in perspective for me.
