An endless struggle to love myself and who I am without finding someone else to do it for me
I will remember all the good things about me what I love about myself be it the way I think, dress, or love I will find what I love about me
Because I love me With all my heart Even when I'm drowning in insecurities I still love me
sharing my light has always been easy carrying others smiling and supporting crafting just the right words to brighten their hard days
i give and i give and never ask for anything at all they take and take never offering anything
when i have nothing left i explode burst into a fireball of anxiety and pain hurting everyone close to me
why why do i do this? i get so lost in the joy of helping that i forget the most important thing
I have to help ME I deserve love too
The ones who are there for EVERYONE are the ones most likely to forget
that the person who needs their love the most is THEM
There are no actions you can take no choices you can make no words you can say no games you can play
That will invalidate how you feel
Even if you think you blew it I won't give up, we can work through it Give me time, give me space Then let us talk face to face
And I will listen to how you feel
Your feelings are valid and important I know how easy it is to forget it I hope in time you come to see How special you are to me
I care about you and how you feel
When I began I was terrified The path was unknown
What if everyone rejects me? What if I end up all alone? What if this is all in my head? What if I'm wrong?
Every step was scary Every step revealed a new challenge Companions vanished Replaced by new ones Instability was the only constant
One step at a time I've made it this far I'm not carefully treading now I'm running Thrilled to see what lies ahead
This is what I want This is who I am
I gazed into the mirror And realized one day That my inside and outside Looked nothing alike
I've chipped away at it Piece by piece As if assembling a puzzle Of who I really am
I've assembled the puzzle To reveal my inside on the outside And with each piece, I see me More clearly than before
Now I can see my style And my heart is shining with joy Because I love who I am Inside and outside
