Despite the sorrow and pangs of distress I know my worth <br />For in my heart I know that I Matter. <br />Whatever it is even the lowest positions <br />I know deep down in my heart I Matter. <br /> <br />No one is free from trials and tribulations <br />But even with them I still know that I Matter. <br />I may not be the greatest of all time <br />But still I know that truly I Matter. <br /> <br />No one in the world should wonder there place in life <br />Because no matter what You Matter. <br />The toughest pressure makes a diamond <br />So you should know no matter what You Matter. <br /> <br />No one can love you more than you love yourself <br />So we all most know that I Matter. <br />We may not have the prettiest smile or best hair <br />But despite statistics I know that I Matter. <br /> <br />What others think of you may be powerful <br />But it isn’t as mighty as knowing that You Matter. <br />Because without a doubt everyday I wake up <br />I say to myself, “Self, You really do Matter.<br /><br />Corey Threet<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/i-matter-c-5-3-2010/
