Warts and All

I can be a bit distracted

And often grumpy, too.
I forget to think of others
Like I know I should do.
I get wrapped up in all my fears
Instead of trusting you,
And I’ve started many projects
That I’ll never see through.

I’ll never climb to reach the stars,

I’m too afraid I’ll fall…
I cannot carry simple tunes,
In fact I caterwaul,
I wouldn’t dare to dream big dreams,
I only dream real small.
But none of that seems to matter,
You love me, warts and all.

I wish that I could be a prince,

But frog is all I do,
And I am grateful that my frog
Is prince enough for you!
