cause your soul is full of stars

i always believed
my happiness
depends on how low
the number on my scale is
and how often i excersiced this week.
how much or how little i ate.

a few years later
i finally realised
numbers frighten my happiness
and being happy
does not depend on
how much or how little i weight

it depends on precious moments
that dont need to be count
to fullfill me with joy

learning to love yourself
is the greatest lesson of all

cause loving yourself
means being one step closer
to a fullfilled life

-maybe thats what aristotle would say nowadays

i ended up believing
that i am a failure,
a huge mistake

those thoughts still
stuck in my head
like the thought
that i will
never be good enough for anyone


but i am
also trying so hard
to believe
that my existence
isn't a coinsidence
and that i
dont need to be good enough for anyone
but myself

i never believed in my own beauty
until i met you
cause you told me
i am the most beautiful flower
you'll ever see

and then you left
with all the confidence you gave me
and suddenly i stopped believing
in my own beauty

but now i know
i am still a beautiful flower
even before i met you.

i refused to say no.
hurting your feelings
was never my intention
so i stood quiet
and hurt my own

-it's my fault.

lonliness wrapped me like
a warm blanket
i used to get comfortable with

your love was willing
to be a better blanket
but i was afraid of change

and took my lonliness
instead of your love

- regret
