Poetry for people who could use a little kindness

You Are Special

There was a time
when friends for whom you cared
drifted away, making you think
“I am forgettable”

There was a time
when you had a purpose
and then someone else took over, and you thought
“I am replaceable”

There was a time
when these thoughts were all you had
echoing, over and over, until you thought
“I should be alone”

I hope now is the time
you see how unique you are
how special you are
and think something else

That you are not forgettable
You are not replaceable
You are not alone
You are special
