This is for me.

**Time for reflection

No more neglection

More self-affirmations and satisfaction

Deep beyond all that tainted my inner beauty

I shed the covers all at once

Revealing the butterfly inside

Soaring and levitating,

Saying goodbye to gravity

Looking at my mirror image, and smiling

Beautiful and happy,

That is what I am

Sun is shining once again

And this time I am the reason

The reason behind my own smile

Confident about the future,

At peace with the past,

Content with the present

Happy for being me

Loving myself,

And if I ever want a poem,

This poem will be a dedication

To myself

I am everything I need,

And if what I need is love,

Then love is what I shall receive.

I control my fate and happiness,

And if loving myself makes me happy…

Then I love myself, and I am not selfish

I am simply satisfied and glad.

Thank you, for being me.
