I Am Beautiful


It seems I am beautiful No, not seems! But I am really beautiful The beauty in me is eternally in me My essence from God is beauty Who said you are not beautiful? All the noticeable odds are inhibitions They are negative attributes They are accidentals Though it has great influence on me I can still recognize them. These inhibitions only blur the beauty in me It can’t overcome totally the light of beauty in me Though this attributes are most recognized in me, I should not be condemned by them. For the beauty in me keeps fighting these inhibitions. Why must anyone be classified by their inhibitions? Why evaluate rather than educate one by mere attributes? Why do I allow these inhibitions to take charge of my true self? Why must I think that these acquired inhibitions are my true essence? Why not stand to rule thy self? Can these five ‘whys’ be questions of discovery? Truly he says to me; you are beautiful. No one can take the other’s beauty. Tell thy self that; you are beautiful and on it conquer. Make it radiate above all inhibitions and bless thy neighbor by it.

Being realistic gives me the soothing relief to self-assurance by saying; it's well, for there is always a way! Am God's poetry. I'm from Anambra State in the Eastern part of Nigeria. I love attitudes that have an aptitude to fine altitude.
