Realization

Written November 19, 2024

I've noticed I will never be good enough

Don't look good with my hair up?

Oh, okay, I'll always wear it down.

No style?

Oh, okay, I'll wear the same thing every day.

Fat?

I'll starve myself.

Talk too much?

I'll stop talking.

I bother you?

Okay, I'll stop talking to you and everyone else.

Scars?

Okay, I'll wear long sleeves, hoodies, and pants even when it's 100 degrees.

Annoying?

Okay. I'll turn off my phone.

I never feel like myself.

I'm never good enough.

Why can't I just like myself and be fine with it?
