Esteem

She is melancholic

And has always been lonely

Never did she act toxic

nor did she ever play friendly

She was labeled proud

Because she couldn't hang out

She was tagged sad

And was never heard out

She is a one woman army

Because she doesn't know otherwise

She looks like she is picky

Because of what she considers wise

Her esteem is dying daily

She is greatly misunderstood and it's killing her badly
