I think we all need someone to teach us how to love ourselves.
We need them to put their hands on the places they love,
so we can see the beauty in them.

I think we all need someone to teach us how to love ourselves.
We need them to mend the broken spots
or ice our bruising hearts
or stitch up our wounds
or ignore our scars
(but still let us know that they don't change a thing).

I think we all need someone to teach us how to love ourselves.
We need them to grip us tight when we want fall.
We need them to kiss our very souls,
so we know that even our essence is a beautiful thing.

I think we all need someone to love us,
because it's too **** hard to teach ourselves.
