What do you think of
when I'm in front of you?
Am I annoying?
Or do I talk too little?
Do I look pretty?
Is my attitude in check?
Don't you think of me as a good friend?
Do you even care?
Am I not perfect enough?
Is she better than me?
What did I do wrong?
What's the fault with me?
Now I begin to wonder
Does it really matter
What others think of me
When I don't think of myself as deserving?
Because no one will love me
Until I start loving myself.

- Comment from author about the poem: Sometimes when we are feeling insecure, we begin to care a little too much of others' opinions. At that time, it is necessary to remember that the first step to being a good person is to love yourself, because only then will you be able to show compassion towards others.
