I Know

I know I’m a screw up,

I know I can’t do anything right,

And I’ll I can say is

I’m sorry.

I mess up all the time,

I’m a horrible person,

Don’t you think I know this?!

I’ve always known!

I can’t do anything right.

I ruin the easiest things.

I’m too emotional

And take everything too personally.

I’m more than aware

Of my faults

And what I’m not good at.

You pointing them out doesn’t help.

You don’t need to tell me

Every single time I screw up.

I Know!

I know I messed it up.

Please just stop.

With your words

Your actions

It just makes it worse.

It solidifies what I already know

In my heart.

That knowledge

That I’m not good enough.

I’m a failure,

You’ll tell me

I’ll tell me.

I know.

I’m sorry,

That I mess it all up.

That I fail too often

But what do you want from me?

I can’t do much,

Not when you drag me down

Every time I pull myself up an inch.

I’ll never be good enough.

That’s ok though,

Cause I know.

I know everything.

Don’t hide it.

I know,

You know,

Everyone knows.

So there is no point.

No point trying to hide it.
