I want you to be happy
I want you to be able to smile
when you are by yourself
I want you to feel and know that you are
worthy
enough
kind
strong
I hope you feel that
I hope you know that
I could not live up to
any of their expectations
I tore myself down
exhausted all my strength
I gave up pieces of me
stepped out of my bubble
but what did I get in return?
I got to feel crazy
jealous
shamed
why?
why?
why?
hey girl
you are doing just fine and
you are gonna be all right
thanks for the inspiration, Lizzo
nothing better than
being alone
crossing shit off
your own bucket list
