Tell me I am not worthless.
Tell me I am not a mess.
Tell me I matter to you.
Tell me I am like new.
Tell me I belong.
Tell me I am not static but a song.
Tell me.
Tell me I am your light.
Tell me I am what causes you to fight.
Tell me you love me.
Tell me I am free.
Tell me I am not lost.
Tell me my love doesn't come without a cost.
Tell me.
Tell me what I am to you.
Tell me because I need it to make it through.

This was inspired by the song You Say by Lauren Daigle. I feel like this also describes how many people feel on the inside when they look to others for redemption and acceptance.
