i love myself

i am trying to love myself

i am holding hard onto the idea that i can still love myself
if no one else loves me

if i am all alone

if you abandon me
if you free me

if i succeed

if i fail
if i remain here

waiting

i can still love myself
love itself can show me how

to love myself
love itself can fall like rain

moisten me

grow again
a sprout

i love myself
