People Pleasing

I am a people pleaser
Never learned to say no
Guilt eats me alive most days

I want to connect to the world
I want someone to see me and stay
I want the kind of love in the movies

I will do whatever you ask of me
If I can’t I’ll ghost out of fear of disappointment
I’d rather be nothing to you than let you down

I get so overturned when I find connection
I read too deeply and move too fast
Ready to say I love you after only days of talking

I am whatever you need
Call me any name and I will respond
I am only as valuable as I am useful

I want human touch to feel nice again
I’ve let so many put flags on me like a mountain summit
I’ve lost what being valued feels like

I am a people pleaser
I am whoever you need
I don’t know me
