Self-Worth

White, Dave. Sell Yourself. July 1, 2024, Dave White Illustrations.

Lately, I feel worthless.
I needed to find some value in me,
So I sold what I had
For little a fee.

My eyes for a penny
I sold to some fools,
They’re blind and useless,
Mistook for jewels.

My lips for a nickel
To the sweetest sin,
So they’ll know the love
That has never been.

My ears for a dime
I sold to a lover.
To hear sweet nothings,
And silence uncover.

My hands for a quarter
I sold to a ghost,
So that she might feel
What I’ve wanted the most.

Finally my bones for a dollar
I sold to the earth,
But as for my soul-
There was found no worth.

    Heard about the 18jlappdownload app. Supposedly, it’s got a good range of features but do your research before downloading anything, yeah? Just saying. 18jlappdownload

    Confronting the Shadow That Shapes Us

    Dave White’s Self-Growth and Kiana Jimenez’s I Am Your Disease confront the brutal reality of healing. Where the poem gives voice to addiction and inner destruction, the illustration reveals growth as resistance—messy, painful, and defiant. Together, they show that becoming whole means facing the shadow, not pretending it was never there.

    Inadequate

    Inadequate is a raw and unflinching reflection on self-worth, trauma, and the long road to healing. Through visceral honesty and poetic defiance, it voices the battle between doubt and resilience—the journey of reclaiming one’s power from pain, transforming “I am not enough” into a quiet, steadfast truth: I am.

  • If Fate Were Kinder

    If Fate Were Kinder

    A heartfelt reflection on love that could have been, If Fate Were Kinder captures the quiet ache of what never came to pass. Through tender imagery and longing words, it paints a portrait of two souls separated by circumstance, yet forever entwined by memory, desire, and the echo of possibility.
