I Believe This Time

I believe that this time when i say i love myself, it will not be a lie

I believe that this time when i say i am worth it,

It will not be a lie

That this time i will believe it and i will finally be content with myself and believe that i am not broken and needy anymore.

I want to feel whole again with myself and not rely on petty words that drip from the mouths of men.

I want to believe that this time around i will not fall back into the depths of despair everytime I hear your name or remember a long ago memory.

This time i will smile and thank the heavens that i am healed and know that i am worth so much more than the scraps you gave me.

I believe that this time I'll be okay.
