Confidence


There was that sting

That deep sting that eats every piece of you

The sting of low self esteem

It was always eating

An insatiable tapeworm

It's a death while living

 

So I stood up

I need inspiration

I needed self love

I needed self-acceptance

 

I'm here now

I cracked myself wide open for it

I'm here

It wasn't easy

Nothing is

#Flawless is Confidence

#Flawles is Healing

#Flawless is fighting that sting
