That I Would Be Good
that I would be good even if I did nothing
that I would be good even if I got the thumbs down
that I would be good if I got and stayed sick
that I would be good even if I gained ten pounds
that I would be fine even if I went bankrupt
that I would be good if I lost my hair and my youth
that I would be great if I was no longer queen
that I would be grand if I was not all knowing
that I would be loved even when I numb myself
that I would be good even when I am overwhelmed
that I would be loved even when I was fuming
that I would be good even if I was clingy
that I would be good even if I lost sanity
that I would be good
whether with or without you
You are fine, good, great and grand, my friend.
that’s such a powerful song!
I used to listen to this song so loud and sing it at the top of my lungs; it resonates with me so much in what I struggled with so much of my life and what I struggle with sometimes now; that I would be loved, even when I was fuming—the biggest; still big—-being responded to w/ love when I have heat.
I just listened to this song again this morning. Maybe I should make a Tshirt with the lyrics so I can have it with me all day? : )
