Holding Me Back

June 10, 2024

It has taken
years
and years
and years
To see myself
As more than my mistakes
To love myself
Despite the times
I didn't think
I didn't know
I didn't understand

If that is all YOU see
If you cannot accept
That I am NOT perfect
Then all YOU are doing
is holding ME back

and I deserve so much better
