For once...

For once,
I wish you would stop
telling me that I’m worth it
and show me.

For once,
I wish you wouldn’t tell
me I deserve better and
actually prove it.

For once,
I wish you’d skip the point
where you say I’m good enough
and make me believe it.

For once…
           just once,
    I wish you’d realize that
there are moment where words
aren’t necessary because actions—
your actions, are the very things
that say it all.
