When you love yourself

When you love yourself, it’s never quite complete

You’ll still have moments where you’ll cry

anywhere and everywhere 

whether you’re by yourself or in a swarm of faces 

all you feel is that nagging sense of 

alone 

But what I love about the journey is that 

When you love yourself 

You counter the voices that you say won’t 

With ones that say what if you do 

because what if it actually works out for you? 

And how could you say those nasty things to

someone as incredible as you
