Self Acceptance

beyond my beautiful reflection there is self
acceptance make it clear for the misconceptions
of the one's who assume from their perception
and make handouts of their rejections.

I know who I am I know where I stand I'm
determined to expand to be in command
it's in my demand I will continue to rise looking
down on the hateful eyes never will I be what
you expected nor am I here to be accepted.
