Your chest isn\u2019t too small<\/p>\n
your butt isn\u2019t too flat<\/p>\n
your glasses aren\u2019t too thick<\/p>\n
your feet aren\u2019t too big<\/p>\n
those insults are coming from others that don\u2019t even know themselves<\/p>\n
they want you to be who they are comfortable with<\/p>\n
someone who minimizes their own self<\/p>\n
who shrinks to become whatever is needed in that moment<\/p>\n
in 5 years none of those people will matter<\/p>\n
they go home measuring themselves according to you<\/p>\n
they go home wishing they had your body<\/p>\n
your feet<\/p>\n
your eyes<\/p>\n
your intelligence<\/p>\n
while you go home figuring out how to shrink<\/p>\n
how to become anyone that won\u2019t need to be teased<\/p>\n
if it\u2019s not your size<\/p>\n
its your friends skin color<\/p>\n
your virginity<\/p>\n
Your hair ends needing to be trimmed<\/p>\n
its your clothes brand<\/p>\n
your dirty tennis shoes<\/p>\n
Dear sweet girl, you are not meant to be enough for anyone else<\/p>\n
you sweet sweet girl..<\/p>\n
you are more than enough for yourself<\/p>\n
so just be you<\/p>\n
learn to be comfortable in your skin<\/p>\n
with your flaws<\/p>\n
and love yourself through not knowing better<\/p>\n
love yourself through others judgements<\/p>\n
love yourself through it all<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
