More, more and more.
That hypnotizing word induced
   shamefulness on me to the core.
I want greater, bigger, better things.
I yearn for flawless skin, pretty face,
   kinder persona—all that's
   glittering.

I'm not blind but my vision's 0/20.
I can't accept nor acknowledge my
   countless insecurities.
Always in a constant battle I can't
   win.
Continuously in a struggle I
   shouldn't be in.

I've got scars and flaws even
   accompanied with dark thoughts.
But some more, greater, bigger,
   better things can never be sought.
For stars cannot shine if darkness is
   nowhere.
How does one become good if evil
   has disappeared.

Hence, let us let go of the weight
   weighing down our minds and
   chests.
Insecurities and greed must be put
   to eternal rest.
Yin and yang dwell inside each of
   us.
Focus on your yang and accept
   your yin, what we all have are
   homologous.

We are alike yet different.
Hence, don't compete with a
   contender from a different
   competition nor yearn for a
   hammer of a different form when
   you already have one that fits the
   nail you possess more; with that
   being said, I rest my case ladies
   and gents.
