Expectations

by Brebelles

I set myself so high of expectations.
I know I’ll never reach them,
Yet I continue to set them.
Maybe that is why I have such,
low-self esteem.
Over and over,
I tell myself to lower the bar,
I set so high.

I just tune my self out,
Making the music loud.
Drowning out my thoughts.
La la la la la la.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Mm, hm, hm.
Ooh, ooh.

I just tune my self out,
Making the music loud.
Drowning out my thoughts.
La la la la la la.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Mm, hm, hm.
Ooh, ooh.

    Aw that’s sad that you have low self esteem. But your poem is good.
