“If I had a world of my own, everything would be nonsense. Nothing would be what it is, because everything would be what it isn't. And contrary wise, what is, it wouldn't be. And what it wouldn't be, it would. You see?” - Mad Hatter

today the secrets out
you are beautiful
that you would ever think otherwise is a crime
you are beautiful
a flower no matter the color
no matter the shape
no matter the size
it is beautiful
and why we don't think of ourselves in the same way is a crime
you are beautiful
you are
no matter your size
no matter your color
no matter your scars
you are beautiful.
don't listen to what people say
don't listen to the hate people yell
you are beautiful
so love who you are
what you are
no matter what
because at the end of the day
you are you
and you are perfect

Shaykul Islaam ibn Taymiyyah: It is sufficient to note that one of the effects of love of a member of the opposite gender is enslavement of the heart which is held captive to the loved one. So love is a door that leads to humiliation and servility. That is sufficient to put one off this sickness. [Majmoo' al Fataawa 10/132]
