IF THERE'S SOMETHING THAT IS WRITTEN IN THE WRONG WAY, PLEASE LET ME KNOW!

I looked at my dark skin with with my dark eyes. My black hair was short, because I thought that keeping it that way would've made me seem a whole different person.
The thighs that everyone talked about as I walked, were something that I loved about myself anyway.

Why did I feel like straightening my hair and using a foundation two shades lighter would make people like me more? Why did I think that my life's motivation and happiness could depend on my appearance? Why did I feel like I was less of a person, because of my appearance?

Why shouldn't I be worthy of love? Why do people assume that because I look a certain way, I'm going to be attracted to the people that look like me? Does that mean that I can't like someone with blonde, pink or blue hair?

Why do people automatically assume these things? Love doesn't have a specific look. Love doesn't have blue eyes or brown hair. Love or respect doesn't have wide hips or a small waist.

I'm worthy of love. I deserve an education. I have the right to have dreams and to chase them. I want to love and to be loved. I want to live me life safely and happily.

I gave up on looking a certain way. I don't want to fear. It's hard but I know that we'll get there. I know that one day when I go out to buy a bouquet of flowers for myself, people won't question it. I know that one day I'll be able to walk home at night without fearing.

I know that one day when I'm in my bed I won't fear falling asleep.

"Are you ready, love?" — and I was. I took his hand and let my thoughts wander away.
