It is like a sin to be seen
To show up and laugh out loud in crowd
I don't want to be seen, judged nor pay attention too
I have no confidence to put my head on my shoulders too
No boldness to lock eyes with Strangers, nor make eye contact with a friend passing by
I try to numb the feeling in my stomach whenever someone starts looking
Praying look away, am nothing interesting to beseem
I start walking fast, run like a horse aiming to win a match
I feel embarrassed every time I pass by some boys sitting across the lake
I reminisce the days I walked lofty and sure of myself
Where that girl went, I wonder!
Who planted the seed of ugliness, doubt and lack of certainty in my head?
Who labeled my soul as hideous and grim?
Who staffed my mind with all these unpleasant thoughts!
Why I didn't love myself!
What went wrong, where did it all start? I question with a Frown!
The lights I hold inside I try Dimming, so I will push down my Glimmer
I keep spinning, around and around try learning!
The way to love the inner girl living inside!
I try to cloth myself with kind, gentle words
To calm the storms and winters in my heart
The love showed in front of a mirror helped melting the ice in my eyes
Warmed up my heart
And broke locks to my soul
All helping to dig a hole
And rescue confidence buried in my mind's soil!
And finally I feel Rejoiced!
