Tameeka Smith (Norfolk)
Unlovable
We have all been told
That sometimes when it comes
To the one that we love
There will be days
When we seem unlovable
Completely intolerable
Always remember
That God is in control
Even on the days
When we want to walk away
Not want to stay
Having to rely solely
On the love between the two of you
To help keep you sustained
Holding on extra tight
To help the love
So it will remain
So things don't ever change
We have to whether the storm
Tough times don't last long
Sunny days will be reborn
We have to stay strong
Cause we already know
We are where we belong
Don't want the love to be gone
Yes even on the days
When we seem unlovable
It is those days
When we are required to
Love one another more
For sure
Even through the pain
And all of the hurt
We must do whatever
It takes to make things work
It's soooooooo worth it
To spend the rest of your life
With the person who is meant
So it's worth spending
Your life showing
That person that you love
How much they mean
No matter how long it
Takes for them to see
Especially on the days
When we are unlovable
