The years of a painful childhood
Growing up that childhood I had with a mother who constantly physically and mentally abused me ruined me
Going to school everyday being constantly bullied all the time and being called ugly beaver teeth ruined me
I never thought I was good enough because of my painful childhood
Looking at myself in the mirror and hating who I was became a bad habit
Pointing at my flaws and how imperfect I was to everyone around me
I didn't love myself not one bit
I didn't see how beautiful I truly was
I didn't know what real unconditional love felt like because growing up all I knew was pain
Not loving myself I started to begin to hurt people that loved me for me and cared for me but I was too blind to see due to all the negativity and pain through those years in my life
I'd like to say I'm sorry to all the people I hurt because I didn't love myself
Just know I never meant to hurt you or mean any harm I just didn't see how beautiful I truly am
Though I must admit I do struggle sometimes with feeling like I'm not good enough
I look at myself in the mirror and I know that I am good enough because if I wasn't good enough then why would I still be here sharing my story through my art which is poetry.
