It's always there. In the back of your mind. Saying everything that you don't need to hear. Saying things that you just don't want to hear. Why won't it just go away? Why can't it let me be happy? It tears away at me, using the things about me that aren't perfect against me. Just because she's pretty, does that really mean that I can't be pretty too? It whispers hateful things in the back of your mind. Sometimes it even manages to convince you that there are things wrong with you. Nothing is wrong with you. Nothing was ever wrong with you. Shut the voice that keeps saying all of these negative things up, and prove to it that you are beautiful. That you are fine with making mistakes. That you are just fine as you are. The voice may never go away forever but when it does come back just remember, you are louder than the voice inside your head.
