The little things.

Not sure why you bother me so much
So insignificant you are.

Yet I obsess & dwell over you
Because you won't get out of my head.

You make me feel as though
everything I do
just isn't good enough.

I sit here
trying to convince myself that I have worth.

That I have people who care about me
that love me.

Yet you make those things seem lesser than you.

Please leave me be.

Let me be happy with all that I have
& embrace this newfound happiness
that I know does exist in my life.

Stop trying to take that away from me.

Because I won't let you.

I'll continue to fight back the negative thoughts
Till you're no longer there.

Until I have enough strength to just not care anymore
whether it's there or not
those little things will continue to try & take my happiness away...
