How Can I Love You?
How can I?
How can I love you?
When I don't love me?
You call me selfish
You see me as self-centered
For not sharing my emotions with you
But what you don't know
Is that I don't have any emotions to share
Because all I feel is hate and resentment
And I wish I can give them out
Maybe if I will
It will make be better
Make me love myself
For the hate and resentment, I feel
Will be for someone else and not me
How can I love you?
When I can't love me?
How do I say the words "I love you" to someone
When anytime I look at myself in the mirror
And gazes at my eyes as I open my lips to say the words
But I just can't
All I can do is weep
Watching the tears fall from my eyes
No matter how you make me
Listen to your sweet words
Accept your amazing gestures
Blush by your compliments
Laugh at your joke
And say the words "I love you" to me
I won't accept it
Because I can't understand how someone can love me
When I don't find myself worthy to be loved
I can't accept and give what I don't have
So I am sorry I can't love you
Because I am finding it difficult to love me
