I Matter (C) 5-3-2010 Poem by Zahir Kijani

Despite the sorrow and pangs of distress I know my worth
For in my heart I know that I Matter.
Whatever it is even the lowest positions
I know deep down in my heart I Matter.

No one is free from trials and tribulations
But even with them I still know that I Matter.
I may not be the greatest of all time
But still I know that truly I Matter.

No one in the world should wonder there place in life
Because no matter what You Matter.
The toughest pressure makes a diamond
So you should know no matter what You Matter.

No one can love you more than you love yourself
So we all most know that I Matter.
We may not have the prettiest smile or best hair
But despite statistics I know that I Matter.

What others think of you may be powerful
But it isn’t as mighty as knowing that You Matter.
Because without a doubt everyday I wake up
I say to myself, “Self, You really do Matter.
