I was…
Stressed
Depressed
Heartless
Spiritless
Hateful

I…
Attempted to be someone I’m not
Faked a smile to impress everyone else
Never cared about my happiness
Always tried to impress others
Never saw myself as beautiful
Failed to be me

From now on I…
Will look in the mirror
Love the person looking back
Enjoy waking up
Not regret the day before it begins
Tell myself I’m beautiful
Love myself
Love my friends
Be a better woman
