I am not that beautiful
Or talented either
You say the light shines around me
But I can't see it neither
I borrow my time,
Of happiness in your divine
I sink into myself
When I'm unhappy
Im not this abitious woman
You tell me that I am
You say I can be anything I want
How do I know that I can?
I borrow my time,
Of happiness in your divine
I sink into myself
When I'm unhappy
The other person replies:-
I know you better than you've ever known yourself
You have be kind to yourself
Say the right words
I know the fights hard,
and it hurts
You have to put yourself first
Do it for you...
I know the pain, ive seen it in your eyes
If I've seen it once, a thousand times
It hurts me too
Replies in brackets:-
I borrow my time, (don't borrow, buy)
Of happiness in your divine (take all of what's mine)
I sink into myself (look deeper now)
When I'm unhappy (I want you to be happy)

- Comment from author about the poem: Insecurities from both perspectives. Might make this into a song. Thanks for reading.

I think a song with the melody built around your words would probably work .. Good luck

Good write Box.
You seem to be able to see both sides in this, summarised at the end.
Yes this feels like a song in the making along with the right music - - a very good read.
And a sense of humour too.I love it
