"EVERYBODY LOVES ME"

I don’t expect you to see

all the good in me

all that I’d like to be

anything lovely.

I need this

I crave for the bliss

This addiction is endless

that my mind never rests.

I want them to see

how I hate to be

all sad and lonely

even when they’re far,

far away from me.

For once,

let me reject my reality

by convincing myself

that I’m mighty

and everybody loves me.
