Will you?

What Calder may be saying,
which is why I won't give up:

I may never be as
good
as the others.
In fact, I would
fail
again and again.
Will you still love me?
Will you hold my hand?
Will you risk the trust
that even though I was not ok
yesterday,
I can be ok
today?
Will you determine to
celebrate my strengths
And forgive my weaknesses?
Again and again?
Will you persist in believing
that I can make it
one day?
