Appreciate Me Poem by Zweli 'tsg' Charles Mahlangu

If only I could be appreciated

I have done greate things in order to recorgnised
but it feels like it is the more I am tossed aside further and further,
It matters not how I figh to achieve, to people I am just a losser that will even fail to think.

Why is it so hard for people to appreciate me?
Their demands and wishes are fulfilled without hesitation, but every body seem to care-less about me as long as my 'needs' are meet after thier 'wants'.

Thinking about how I tried to be accepted when only what I got was more hatred and anger,
but how can I confront them and say 'if only Icould be appreciated'.

It never ment anything to everybody as to how many times I have drobbed tears,
I wasn't comforted when I cried, I wasn't held when I felt lonely because not even a single soul in this world atleast pretended to care,
so who can I turn to, and say 'if only I can be appreciated'.

Lord do you appreciate me? Messiah do you appreciate me? I have asked myself this question till I couldn't bear to say the words.

So do you appreciate me?
Because that is all I desire right now,

if only I could be appreciated
appreciated
appreciated.
