Worth



honesty they said,
effort what they said to look,
Yet,
In the end who ever won by the book?
When they judge by a piece of paper,
Not proven that there isn't a hint of pepper,
Our worth so worthless.
They said go by rules,
Your effort needs more never less,
When can i rest?
For human i am,
If not perfect, am i not of worth?
