Always thinking against it
Despite all the praise
Always thinking otherwise
No matter what they all say
Receiving compliments all the time
Searching for the flaws I perceive
Listening to them with a thankful smile
Yet never will I actually believe
These thoughts continue to come and go
Sometimes keep me in complete denial
These feelings go both up and down
Other times make me consider retrial
Hearing admirations from many a person
Disproving right away, always naturally
Handling them all like that, until
Just one person voices them casually
Suddenly these new notions take hold
Perhaps there is some reason for why
Every time someone offers ovation
Potentially there is a purpose to apply
Observing how that one person sees me
Noticing their smile whenever their eyes
Gazing upon me and now I see
That in all reality, there’s more to me.
