Average

This is a very bad poem I wrote about a certain guy I dated. His words hurt, but also made me realise how much better I deserved. So I dedicate this to him, a boy who could not love because his heart was filled with poison.

Average

I may be average

But at least I’m not heartless

I may be average

But at least I’m not an alcoholic

I may be average

But at least I am the kind to people

I may be average

But at least I don’t take things for granted

I may be average

But at least I can love
