to you who is hurting
you are not alone
my demons used to follow me too
they used to plague me
"you are ugly"

until I was broken
lying on cold concrete
hurting myself
on all of my shards
unable to glue myself
back togetherI need you to understand
your demons are your demons
they are not you
nothing you feel is imaginary
you are true
you are beautiful
you are enough
you will never
be defined by
your imperfectionsI invite you to battle alongside me because
I believe in you
I believe in the good in you
