show true colors when no one is looking.
we fear what they may think,
not  
understanding the power  we hold
and it’s deeper than we know and think.
i don’t see no potential,
im insecure.
though i know im enough,
i search for more.
seeking validation,
mere appreciation.
but the fault isn’t you,
it is what is in your view.
you see pictures everyday,
depicting perfection,
a certain perception that flows in one direction
toward a standard of beauty
that’s unhealthy
and unkind.
but the problem isn’t your body
no the problem is your mind.
the reason you are blind
is a truth you’ll never find
if you try to fit an image outside of who you are.
you’ll never find a resting place
not near and
no not far,
you were created equal not identical,
you see
&
i wouldn’t wanna be anyone else,
cause no one can be me.
