The Best And Worst Of Me Poem by Cj Heck

you've seen me
at my worst
and still you love me

maybe you love me
in spite of myself
knowing my faults
and how I wish
I didn't own them

but it's all relative
considering
you've also seen me
at my very best
and still you love me

you seem to know
it's the reflection
I see in your eyes
that compels me
to rise above
like cream
and be my best
more often

it's that
and everything

you know me
and love me

I love you
all the more
for that
