Just because you do not like me
doesn’t mean i shouldn’t like myself
just because you don’t want me
doesn’t mean i shouldn’t want myself
just because you don’t love me
doesn’t mean i shouldn’t love myself
if i decided to perceive myself as others did
there would be nothing of me to cherish
but because no one is willing to appreciate me
i will have to appreciate me first
