You Deserve Better
Why are you letting yourself be the second choice,
when your heart should be the first?
Why do you hold onto people who only bring storms,
when you could find those who calm your soul?
You deserve more than these broken promises,
the hollow words, the empty presence.
Why are you allowing yourself to shrink,
when you should feel the freedom to expand?
Let go of those who only take and never give.
You are worth so much more than this.
You deserve to feel cherished, to feel loved,
to be surrounded by light, not shadows.
Remember, you don’t have to settle for less
than the respect, the kindness, the love
that you give so willingly.
You deserve better than what you’ve allowed yourself to accept.
So step away from what weighs you down
and walk toward the peace you’re meant to find.
