Default Acknowledged

this one is very simple, practically a hallmark card, it's about genuine appreciation, it's called Acknowledged

Under me
You will never be
Underappreciated

Because for far too long
You have given
And taken for granted

They all know
How great you are
But refuse to tell you

They only see
How to compete
And not let you surpass them

And so they won't
Even acknowledge
That you exist

And you will spend
Your life being great
Without ever knowing

You will be trampled
Used and tossed
For how right you are

Because this world
Only rewards
The one who wins

Instead of rewarding
How good you are
As a human being

So the very least
i could do
For a kind person like you

Is to let you Know
That i at least
Appreciate you for you
