I am enough

[Mrs Behavin]

"You cannot change what is part of you,"

Although I've often tried.

My body was never thin enough,

My imperfections I'd always hide.



I smiled when they said I was beautiful,

I laughed when they said I was great.

But it took a long time to believe in their words,

I figured lonliness was my fate.



The boys I wanted didn't want me,

I was tossed, used and torn.

So many took me as a joke,

I crawled inside myself scared and forlorn.



My self esteem had let me down,

my belief in myself was nil.

I did not understand where I was headed,

could not understand until.....



I finally decided to believe in me,

I realized that I was worth so much.

This was when I could see through the storm,

when I allowed my soul to be touched.



I sometimes wish for money and love,

when times get distressing and tough.

But I know that I will always love myself

No matter what-

I AM ENOUGH!
