Making Amends with Yourself
I've called you
every name
in the book
fat, ugly, lazy,
stupid, worthless
not good enough
I've compared you
to everyone
I've come across
I am not sorry for this
but I am sorry
you do not know
there is always
going to be
someone smarter
someone prettier
someone skinnier
someone more talented
but no one could ever
carry the burdens
you've carried
no one could ever
move the mountains
you've moved
no one could ever
limit or compare
to your own inner strength
no one could ever be as
enough as you
I am not sorry that you are enough
