My Self Worth

Where is it? Where could it be?
Maybe it is hidden, deep within me.
My Self Worth, why does it hide?
Come out, come out! I pleaded, I cried.
This I did, I really tried.
Far behind the clutter in my mind, I heard
a voice, to me it said,” be strong, you make
the choice."
It's good to be nice; don't let anyone step
all over you, not once, not even twice.
It's okay to say “NO”. Sounds so good how
that word can flow.
I'm still sweet as can be.
But beware, don't you dare try to take advantage
of me. You ask me why?
See now, My Self Worth is here. It is here with 
me, no longer will it hide.
My Self Worth is here to stay, and will not be 
washed away.

Thank you for reading and for the inspiration. It's so true what you say.

If I feel physically as if the top of my head were taken off, I know that is poetry.

Emily Dickinson (1830-1886) American poet.
