I’m celebrating
Beauty
In all it’s hatred
Rejection
In all it’s sweetness
Betrayal
In all it’s glamour
Disgust
In all it’s reality
Mockery
In all it’s truthfulness
Pain
In all it’s endurance
Hurt
In all it’s passion
Darkness
In all it’s intensity
Yes
I am celebrating
In all
At last
I smile
After years of waiting
And displeasure of counting
Giving up my old skin
Closing behind the rotting bin
Stretching wings wide apart
For the first time, learning the art
Forgetting mocks and boos
Smirking at the glares in amuse
Overcoming weakness, pain
Standing up for myself, bondage slain
Welcoming the new me
Set free
No more afraid, come what may
I’m bold, I mean what I say
I feel, proud, I feel pretty
I feel life, in all it’s beauty
Saying to myself
This is my true self
I breathe, claiming the air
Fully charged to no compare
I look up
And
At last
Again
I smile
Waking up
She quickly goes to the mirror
Says out loud
You look damn hot
Even in your bed head
(Who hates their own refection?)
