You Matter

You matter, beautiful child.
You matter.
So long as you can breathe the air around you,
you matter.
So long as you can speak words of truth and know its value,
you matter.
So long as you feel love for all that is good and pure,
you matter.
So long as your heart see's beauty though you're mind's not sure,
you matter.
So long as your heart beats life into your body,
you matter.

You matter child, you matter, and proof of that child,
is in your smile.
