SELF-ACCEPTANCE
     ===============

Aimless voids that spiral down
Into the nothing that makes us all
And twisting turning aching burning
We all fall down
And that's what it is
 To be born of pride
  All hollow inside
   To try to be who others think you are
    Putting on a mask to conceal a scar
   Be true above all with all it entails
  Clearing 'way the layered veils
 That scorpion, toad, or bunny be
Be seen, accepted by others like me
For those that would reject you
Just for being yourself
Are naught to consider
Smaller than you could ever feel
Concentrate on those that make you feel best
That happiness and comfort find you
That you would pare down to what matters
That you recognize your own true worth
And never compare yourself
You are special in your own right
Who you are is not wrong
Who you will become is no one's to judge
Who you were matters not
So clear away those guises that you may be happy
Find a way to look in the mirror again
Being bold inside but not on your lips
This is my wish for you
