When I was younger,
I hated myself,
I hated my acne,
I didn't like how I looked in clothes,
I didn't like my smile,
I didn't like my hair,
I couldn't stand my stomach,
I hated my weight,
Hated my teeth,
I was embarrassed by my right arm due to injury.
When I got older,
I hated my voice,
Couldn't stand my laugh,
But now,
I know,
I was made perfectly,
I love me,
Love my quirks,
Love my laugh that makes me and others laugh harder,
Love my smile that can brighten up a room,
Love my curves,
Love who I see in the mirror,
I love me.
I love all my imperfections,
I love my body,
I love my right arm,
And how I know,
I was always meant to be right handed,
I love me,
I love Ashley.
