We were so innocent, so pure, our eyes shine like stars
Looking in the mirror, our eyes shine like stars
We loved what we saw from the bottom of our feet to the top
We sparkled with much pride and had hearts that shine like stars
But we heard what we should look like, we saw models
With sparkling gems and gowns that shine like stars
We look at the judgements of others, then at ourselves
With a cruel gleaming glare that shine like stars
But love, you don't need to fit in a box of beauty to be worthy
You have come so far, look at yourself, rekindle that pride, you shine like stars
Looking in the mirror, our eyes shine like stars
We loved what we saw from the bottom of our feet to the top
We sparkled with much pride and had hearts that shine like stars
But we heard what we should look like, we saw models
With sparkling gems and gowns that shine like stars
We look at the judgements of others, then at ourselves
With a cruel gleaming glare that shine like stars
But love, you don't need to fit in a box of beauty to be worthy
You have come so far, look at yourself, rekindle that pride, you shine like stars
Another poem that I wrote for my poetry class. It's a ghazal poem and tbh to people who are good at writing this style, props to you I could never. But yeah hope y'all like it and yes...love yourself, you've come so far and have been through so much! Be proud of what you've accomplished.
