A matter of self worth

Never felt like I was worthy 
Never ever saw my need
I put others before me 
Always: what I did was for another
Always: it was my heart that
was left to bleed
How long must one suffer?
How long the journey?
Till someone shows you?
Intercedes...
It is only through searching
Deep within my tortured soul
To find help to ease the pain of others
That I have finally been able
To feel the pain within me
To understand the scars I find
It is to myself that I have been blind
So as I open up my eyes to investigation
As I am finally made aware
There inside I find my little child
There inside it is my pain laid bare
