The marks on my skin don't define me
They don't make me who I am

They're just on my skin
They're not significant
They're irrelevant
It's just there

My body is beautiful
The way it is

The way I have rolls when I sit down
How my legs take up the whole seat
My arms aren't twigs
I'm not flawless
I'm not perfect

I'm who I am
And I love myself
I'm who I need to be

I'm me, I'm the best person I can be.
