"She looks just like you!" They say, and I beam! But they're saying much more than their saying seems… For I'd never say to her what I constantly say to me… ("You don't measure up, you can't be enough! You're ugly, you're stupid, just keep your mouth shut!") My mind in shock, my heart so hurt, To even think about speaking...

To my God To the only one that could set me free. My path has become clearer. I've been finding myself. Slowly but surely my confidence is gaining as I learn who I am. Seeing and accepting my worth.

When you hide the real you behind the curtains of your inability, You break the confidence you built for years Into pieces, to be fed to your growing ego. And then, do you feel different? Lose yourself slowly in this world of acceptance? Weakness turned you...

I sit down in my seat and look around How can everyone seem so perfect…so unlike me?
