Analysis of KNOW YOUR WORTH



There are simply people in this world,
Who are hateful to the core.
Putting down others, any chance they get,
Is nothing, that they love more.
Spending their days, trolling the net,
Seeing what "victims" they will gain.
Getting a sick and twisted satisfaction,
By causing misery and pain.
I know it's easier said, than done,
Just ignore all the bad things they say.
Simply smile at them, and say thank you,
And totally ruin their day.
Be proud, be strong, and be happy,
You are all beautiful in your own right.
Don't let the haters take your self esteem,
And don't let them take your light.
Dream your dreams, and achieve your goals,
Enjoy every moment you have on this earth.
Know who you are, and know what you want,
And always know your worth.
