Love who You are, no who people want you to be.


People say my name like I cant hear them,
Like they think I’m not there at all.
I think to myself what it would be like to never exist, and then I think about who my friends are, what would they be like if I had not been there for them.
I think of how everything would be different.
But then I look at myself in the mirror and say I Love my body, my hair, my everything. If somebody says they don’t like it …..Well I don’t care. Yall don’t control me, yall don’t control anything, I control myself and I Love what I see. Loving myself is more important that what others say and do. They simply want to put you down for not looking as they do. I love who I am and I believe everyone should love there self and not try to become something they are not.

Don't love what others want you to become. Love who you are and what choices you make.
