Self Love

I learned from my mistakes

That my heart always aches

Because I loved men

Before I loved myself

So now everyday 

I dont turn away

When I see myself in the mirror

I stand tall and without a tear

I tell myself, "Because I love You"

I will not tell you arent beautiful

Because I love you

You are stonger than before

Because I love you 

You will never have another cut on your skin

Because I love you

You do not need to starve or throw up

Because I love you

You do not need any more pills

And Because I love you

You will never need to here this from a man

Since I can now hold my own hand
