How

How am I supposed to love myself
When my reflection in the mirror
Is stained with fingerprints of
People who didn't even care to learn my
Favorite color.  
How am I supposed to love myself  
With blood dripping from
Open wounds from every goodbye
That was carved out of my arms.
How am Isupposed to love  myself
When I have no heart left
Because I gave it away to every person
In hopes they would stay  
How am I supposed to love myself
When no one else wanted to.
