I try to keep things natural.
No makeup
Not too much maintenance
No tight clothing
No scales in the house.
I was asked if I thought
I was better than everyone else.
If I thought makeup was a bad thing.
But when every day
Is a battle to love myself,
I strip down to the basics
To get used to what's me.
To make the blows of my reflection
In the mirror easier to take.
I'd rather love myself when I wake up
And love myself when I go to bed
Without worrying about how society
Sees me in between,
How you judge me in between,
If I can some day soon
Love myself in between too.
