Worth It
By Emma Worsham
Is it worth the pain
to be your friend?
Is it worth the tears
to see your smile?
Is it worth the ache
to be witness to your happiness?
Is it worth the emptiness to
see your passion and love for
life?
Is it worth the despair
to get to know you?
It's not worth not liking you
for your grades.
It's not worth not liking you
for the books you read.
It's not worth not liking you
because you don't listen in class.
It's not worth not liking you
for the things that span mortality.
It's worth liking you
for your smile.
It's worth liking you
to see one more happy person.
It's worth liking you
to see passion for life
no matter how short.
It's worth liking you
for your friendship.
It's worth the pain
to have been your friend.
It's worth the tears
to have seen your smile.
It's worth the ache to
have witnessed your happiness.
It's worth the emptiness
to have seen a passion.
It's worth all the despair
to have known you.
It's worth it
to see you slowly fade away
because I knew you.
It's not worth a thing
unless you know what will happen
at the end.
It's worth it
if I can help you home.
