Do I deserve to be criticised
for being a bigger size?
And if I was thinner
would they even like me?
My skin is too pale
and my thighs are too wide.
But I’ll keep on telling myself
that true beauty’s inside.

How can something that’s natural
make me feel so unnatural?
And why am I shamed
for my body shape.
My teeth are too crooked
and my nose is too big.
I pick myself to pieces,
it’s no way to live.
Always the dreamer
But did that fire go out?
Did I give up on myself?
Have I lost that spark?
The ambition. The drive.
Who am I without a dream?

You were a dream in black.
Pale skin. Bright eyes.
The mist in the morning.
A shadow in the sky.
You are comfort and conflict.
Kind smile. Cold heart.
A heavenly creation.
A whisper in the dark.

But saying that, I am working on a new project that I am aware will be seen by others and will be ‘out there’ so it’s time to stop being afraid and just go with it ✌🏻
I’m not so great at social media, especially when it comes to my writing but I’m trying. I want to share it but at the same time I’m insecure and anxious about it. I’ve always kept it to myself but I don’t think there’s really any harm in sharing it. #writingcommmunity
