Pretty as a Picture

Dearest Darling,

Another year, another doubt about yourself.

You promised me, darling.

You told me you were over this.

You promised.

I don't blame you, darling.

Really, I don't.

Insecurities are a bitch; don't I know it.

But, you're gorgeous, darling.

You're a dream.

Others who don't choose to love you, don't understand what it is that they're missing when they don't choose you.

Others shouldn't be the ones categorizing who you see your own self as, darling.

That's your job.

Just yours.

Nobody else's.

So, darling..

don't you dare forget who you are.

Don't you dare forget what you are;

an angel set from above;

a goddess who's finding her way;

that's you.

Ignore anyone who tells you differently, darling.

Pretty as a picture.

You.

That's all you.

Sincerly,

Myself.
