If self-love
Is about being
Unable to accept the simplest of compliments,
Playing down achievements
And
Masking it all as “modesty”,
Then I want no part in it.
Fore, I have learnt to undo
the world’s wicked teachings
That wanted to keep me trapped
Within a shell of myself.
I reject that.
I celebrate myself-
I sing myself-
I dance myself-
I laugh myself-
I
Love
Myself.
