Do you remember?
November 12, 2015
Look in the mirror. Now close your eyes.
Try and remember when you last saw yourself as beautiful. When you could look in the mirror and not be ashamed of what you saw.
When you didn’t need to depend on a boy for your worth.
Try and remember the last time that your self confidence was at its peak. Remember when you could be happy?
All on your own? You may not see all of those things now; but you will.
One day, you’ll see yourself as you should. Beautiful, confident, all of those things.
Now open your eyes, take a deep breath, and remember.

I wrote this in my creative writing class. I'm hoping that people will be inspired by my poem and that it will help someone.
