This is Me

This is Me

My beauty is my beauty and itΒ 
took me a minute to accept it,Β 
but now I love it.Β 
Β 
With my nappy hair and my
wide forehead.Β 

With my black bags underneathΒ 
my Chinese eyes.Β 

With my big nose and kool-aid
smile.

My beauty is my beauty and itΒ 
took me a minute to accept it,
but now I love it.Β 

With my wide shoulders and myΒ 
crocked fingers.Β 

With my breasts that I think hasΒ 
too much space between them andΒ 
my stomach that stick out sometimes.Β 

With black girl hips and my big hairyΒ 
bow legged legs.

My beauty is my beauty and itΒ 
took me a minute to accept it,
but now I love it.Β 

With my broad wide feet and theΒ 
wheelchair that I have to use.

My beauty is my beauty and itΒ 
took me a minute to accept it,
but now I love it.Β 

This is me and I love me.

It is deep within the beauty of the self where true beauty is found........ the repetition of the phrase ~ " My beauty is my beauty.." works exceptionally well here!!....... On speaking to the place where we find we must exist in this world.... and the place where we know we might be able to land in this world.... we find ourselves most fortunate to meet people such as yourself to keep the inspiration continuing its flow.......... toΒ keep our dreams alive.......Β well conceived and BEAUTIFULLY delivered poetry here!!.......ALL STARS!!.... well done........ and in case no one has said so.......WELCOME to COSMO dear poet sister!!.......LOVE and ROCKETS!!.......T xo

Hi Tacara, for me the definition of true beauty is someone who knows themselves inside and out and loves every part with all of their being..you , my darling ,CLEARLY do!! and that make you a most beautiful human being...love the way you have composed this - without being maudlin or over sentimental butΒ  telling it just as it is!! Well done Tacara..a beautiful person who does beautiful poetry!! rock on hun !

Well as far as I am concerned you're a beautiful young lady, Tacara.
I learned a long, loooooooong time ago that if we cannot learn to love ourselves despite our many flaws, then how can we expect anyone else to love us?
We are all like snowflakes, uniquely and beautifully made.
Best wishes to you!
