being yourself is harder than you think it is, they say they won't judge. they say they won't change. they say they don't mind. they say they won't leave you. they say they are telling the truth. you know they are not. they say something different once you tell them. how could you? why are you like this? that is a sin. that is not natural. that is wrong. but they are wrong, you are not wrong, you are perfect, and if they don't believe that, then they do not see the real you. they do not see your true beauty. let your beauty be seen, let you be seen.
