This poem is for you

And for everyone else

Who feel that they

Can never be enough.


Don’t listen to the whispers

That you hear behind your back

Because you are valid,

And that much is a fact.


You are incredible, powerful,

And your life is merely a canvas.

Don’t feel bad because others have theirs more filled in,

They’ve simply had more chances.


Focus on the now,

Don’t worry about tomorrow

Because if you do, tomorrow

Will only be filled with sorrow.


This poem is for you

And for everyone else

And it’s here to tell you

That you are more than enough.


The author's comments:

It is so easy to be discouraged when all you hear are negative comments about yourself and others. I hope this poem will encourage people to be themselves and love who they are.
