You said you like me and today I wish,
I could see myself from your eyes.
I wish today I could have,
The same bright smile on my face,
That appears on yours,
Whenever you look at me.
You say that I am kind,
But I have known many much kinder than me.
My kindness is merely a drop of water,
In front of the ocean that they are.
You say that I am sweet,
But I have learnt sweetness from my friends,
Who are sweeter to me than nectar is to bees.
Their sweetness fills me.
You say that I am funny,
But you have not heard my worst jokes,
Neither have you heard my best ones,
Which ones made you laugh?
You say you like me,
But you have not seen the best of me,
Neither have you seen the worst.
How? Why? What?
What is it that I did?
What is it that I should continue doing,
To stop myself from worrying,
That the smile on your face from the sight of me,
Will soon disappear.
