Sometimes, I get anxious
In my head, I’m convinced
I’m always being looked at.
I wish confidence was more consistent
I think a lot about what it must feel like to wake up every day
with positive vibes and a calm mind.
Because my morning routine consists of me convincing myself I’m worth it
And I’m hardly convinced
It’s funny how uncomfortable we can feel inside the bodies we’ve known our entire lives
It’s unnatural to be ashamed of the way I was made
So I’ve been making an effort to face mirrors more often.
Now I know enough to know I don’t have to try to be beautiful, because I am
I have a got small ears & lazy eye,
A broad forehead and a crooked tooth
I don't know much about my existence
but I'm beginning to understand who I was made to be.
So when I get anxious,
when I’m convinced everyone is looking at me,
I look at myself and smile
knowing I am something worth looking at
