Deep within, we may be petrified to learn
How others perceive us, in their own eyes
But, you know your worth, don’t let it concern
Remember who you are, and don’t apologize

In order to accomplish, what we value most
We must take pride in ourselves, to the letter
Tis then we are able, to walk about and boast
Now tell me, is there a feeling any better?

Why is it that the stars, can glow nightly?
But I easily burn out, exhausted, unsightly
My body dares me, to move about, quickly
Until the nerves become angered and prickly
Deciding I should, at last, just park it
Before something else, happens to spark it
Into a raging inferno, of liquid molten rock
When I look in the mirror, I see total shock
On a face I don’t recognize, how could it be
That the face in the mirror, used to be me

We search our souls, though wander they may
Asking questions, as to where we belong
Seeking, to discover, perhaps, another way
Realizing, we knew the answers, all along

It is time that I
wrap myself in
silken threads
and slumber, not
for eternity, but
for a moment, until
I am no longer
an ugly creature
but one of beauty and grace
And I can spread my wings
and fly
