And all at once it became clear
The truth suddenly apparent as I looked myself in the eye
Turns out everything I've been searching for is actually near and dear
From within my own self and not from the outside
I actually may have liked what I saw
For once in what felt like the first time
Things that made up who I am were already enough to shine
Thus allowing myself a chance to be real and raw
My thoughts and world finally aligned
Self love is a journey and a continuos effort, but if you stop and look at yourself from a new perspective, you may decide to like what you see. Not in the name of vanity, but for pure self acceptance for all that you are.
