I Am beautiful


I am beautiful, not by just my looks I am beautiful because of my heart. I am beautiful because I've delt with pain and I survived. I had felt like throwing in a towel like a boxer would when he feels defeated, I still kept going. Kept pushing myself, telling myself to keep going even though I had suffered so much. Dodging to the left, dodging to the right. My heart racing and telling me to keep going. I am beautiful because I've delt with sorrow and I still smiled My ability to keep going after life has countlessly pushed me down, I had never given up. I always kept my eyes on the prize, on foot in front of the other. I've came a long way, all my hardships had made me who I am today. With the very heart the beats soundly inside me. The beauty I am today. I am...Beautiful.
