Self Acceptance Poems - Poems about Self Acceptance

My soul was killing my flaws

I look at my soul killing its flaws. I appreciate it and let it do so. But when I came back to earth to show them a perfect human, I realized my mistakes made me who I am. Without my flaws, I am just a perfect human—but not me.

Premium MemberComing Home to Yourself

There will come a time
when your reflection feels like home again.
You’ll open the door
to what you've been avoiding for years—
and it will be you, standing there,
unarmed, unashamed.

You will take out the old stories
you tucked away
and read them with new eyes,
not the ones who loved you then,
but through the quiet voice that has always seen you
and

Premium MemberA Quiet Knowing

There’s no need to look further than this moment,
no need to reach or strive.

The spirit is here, as steady as your heartbeat—
gentle, like the warmth of hands intertwined,
as familiar as the ground beneath your bare feet.

Listen—
in the quiet between each thought,
a soft truth emerges, complete and unshattered,
reminding us:
you are already home.

Premium MemberBeyond Every Frame

I’m not for every eye to see,
a quiet truth that lives in me.
Steady in heart, grounded and whole,
I guard the light within my soul.

I may not bend to each demand;
my roots hold firm where I stand.
Through scars and stumbles, I claim the road,
guided by courage to bear the load.

If I don’t fit the world’s tight

I Feared

I feared their rejection
But I still had to stand,  
It hurt 
My squeezed heart in their hands

I dreaded being different,  
Until I found my way,  
I found myself
In my thoughts throughout the day

I worried what they'd think,  
Until I claimed my voice,  
Their opinions held no power,  
A truth

No

I want you to say no?
Do you feel like you’re enough?
Do you feel like you will ever find happiness?
Do you feel like you will ever be content?
Do you feel like you have a purpose?

Will you let that stop you?
Will you give up?
Will you stop trying your best?

No One Is Perfect But

There once was a man,
And he thought his skin was too white,
He got a little tan,
Started eating rice

But he started thinking,
What's wrong with myself?
Was god wrong making my skin?
Am I rejected, or doing this made me win?

Who you were, you still are,
It's the inside that matters,
You don't have to argue for other's sake!
No one is

Letter To My Healing Self

Dear healing self, this is a letter to you,

FORGIVENESS:
With words of forgiveness and love so true,
For letting others hurt you, I'm sorry for the pain,
For not giving you the love you deserve, I take the blame.
I forgive others for the mistakes that they've made,
And I apologize for the mess that I have laid,
Let's move forward

Rejection Into Self Acceptance

Fight back tears
Certain fears
Felt rejection
Choose election
Acceptance of self
Use a book upon a shelf
Look into why 
Let that little girl cry
Stay in tune
For what’s coming soon
Is big change from within
With the guidance and love from Him
He knows my name
And what I fear
I hear His answers clear
Thank you for this day
Forever with Him is what I pray
Thank
