(Backup) YOU

It’s something we all need to do

But it’s the one thing 

We find the toughest to do

We struggle with it

We doing ourselves about it

We find it difficult to do

To accept ourselves for who we are

The way we are

We crib and cry about our imperfections

Never truly realising 

That these are our perfections

Cause we are perfectly imperfect 

We may be broken

We may be bruised 

But that’s what makes it uniquely you

So be who you are 

Who you are meant to be

There’s no need to be afraid 

There’s no need to hide

Cause one can tell you can’t

So be unabashedly you

Be a rainbow 

Be a unicorn

Be uniquely you

Don’t shy away from your sensuality 

Don’t be afraid to express your sexuality 

Learn to enjoy them both

Learn to own them 

Just as you would of your body

Irrespective of its type

Be proud of who you

Cause the greatest love 

Is learning to love yourself 

And if you can’t love yourself 

How can you love anyone else!
