In a world that forgot how to be kind,
          they smiled.
          Not because life was gentle,
          but because their heart was.
          
          The body weakened,
          but the soul refused to kneel.
          While others broke under storms,
          they bloomed quietly in the rain.
          
          People called them fragile,
          yet they carried light in their pain,
          and proved that even the sick
          can heal the world with a smile

Accept the skin you live in,
          whether light as dawn
          or deep as midnight,
          each shade is a verse of beauty.
          
          Accept the body you carry,
          slender, soft, or strong,
          the moon is round,
          the stars are small,
          yet both belong to the same sky.
          
          Accept the life you walk,
          whether rich in gold
          or rich in patience,
          true wealth is the kindness
          you leave behind.
          
          For acceptance is strength,
          and love is freedom.
          Whoever you are,
          whatever you hold,
          you are enough
