The Compliment
By dianes
A compliment came by my way, I just did not know what to say, It does not happen that often to know, What to say that is apropo. So I blushed and I thanked him, Glad he had seen within, The person that is inside, The one I try to hide. It is so hard to let people pass, So afraid I might shatter like glass, Can not handle a compliment you see, Been hurt to may times, that is just me. I have to learn to accept some praise, But it was not the way that I was raised, Never heard kind words before, Rarely hear them anymore… So thank you for the compliment, I hope that you know you put a dent, In my fortress wall today, One more brick just fell away.You never know what a kind word or smile can do to make someone's day...Thank you for making mine.
