Day Break


Day after day, I have to tell myself that I AM beautiful, I AM smart, and I DO love myself. But I could go anywhere else besides home and feel ugly, dumb, or unloved. I go to sleep at night and it is dark, but when I go to school or anywhere else in the daytime, I still see darkness. Why is that? Why won't I be able to start? Start a new beginning for myself. To erase all hate and not to discriminate. To erase all of the bad feelings that I have had for myself. I DON'T want to see darkness anymore. I am sick of it. I want to see DAY BREAK..
