Accepting myself

by Lexi Lou   Jun 7, 2004


Todays the first day
I'm comfortable in my skin
maybe its the sleep deprivation
it could be the clothes I'm in

i think the cherries
are going to me head
or maybe I'm just so tired of hating
that i try to accept instead

what ever it is
it feels new
because accepting myself
is something I wouldn't do

    Beautiful short and to the point.
    I loved it. Accepting yourself is the first step to greatness.
    Reminds me of a poem I wrote called 'Garden Lord'
    Do me the honor of reading it.

    Hey Lexi. Nice poem here. Glad to know that you accept yourself for who you truly are. Not many people do, but it's good that you tried your best to do so. Take care always and hope to hear from you soon.

    I liked this one. You're talented. One thing though, on your second line on the second stanza, i think 'me' was suppose to be 'my' but w/e. It was a beautiful poem about self discovery.
