Love Thyself
I’ve been given a gift
The ultimate gift
Correction
One of the ultimate gifts
A way to undo
A way to redo
A way to rewrite
A way to reject spite
A way to free myself
From suffocation
Mediocrity
Unfulfillment
Disillusionment
Fear
And it was simple
Far simpler than imagined
I found who was to blame
Who was the tormentor
But it was the same reflection
As the protector
It was always me
Me as my worst enemy
Me as my best friend
So the choice was made
The choice to undo the damage
To love
First and foremost
Myself
