206. Hungry For Approval

I hate being so emotional
Being so hungry for approval
Afraid of being taken for granted
Left feeling lost, confused, and frantic
“Don't be vulnerable
It's not acceptable"
Seems to be our daily anthem
Chanting it like a holy manta

What good is it to be so caring and kind?
To always be wearing my heart on my sleeve?
Appreciation can be so hard to find
Even then, I still choose to firmly believe
That our paths were meant to cross for a reason
Your presence in my life is what I needed

You inspired me to come out of my shell
Your words offered me peace as I went through hell
With you next to me, I want to give my best
You help me see the good in life, feeling blessed
Sure, there are times things could feel complicated 
But if we stand together, we could push ahead

I'll climb the walls that past pains created
To prove to you that I'm different
And show that I'm willing to be persistent
Let’s make memories without resistance
You leave me speechless, you’re so magnificent
Your taste left me wanting more, I’m elated
