Look at me,
How perfect I am.
How every inch of my body has fought to get through.
Look at me,
How brave I am.
How much I've hidden my scars to act tough,
and how much I've laughed when all my heart had was tears of pain.
And now look at this world,
asking me,
"Why are you so frail?"
Dear world,
Look at me,
Look at my eyes, how they carry an ocean full of emotions without letting you drown in.
Look at my nose, how beautifully it took in your dirt when it had roses to smell.
Look at my lips, how chapped they are of thirst when they have rivers to get drunk.
Every part that I carry is beautiful, Every word that I say is wise,
Look at me how brave I am and
how high I am gonna rise.
Just Look at me once.
