Poem #48// Expect

It's not about...
What you look like
What you wear,
How smart you are,
Or who your friends are.

Your religion...
Your race...
Your sexuality...
Your grades....
Your relationship status...
Doesn't matter.

You are more...
Than your mistakes,
Your imperfections,
Your looks,
Or the rumors, bullshit, and lies.

It's okay...
To cry,
To be sad,
To be upset,
And to not understand why.

You are more than what they tell you you are.
For if you saw yourself threw someone else's eyes,
You might find them loving you
More than you expect them to.
