Mirror

You are valid.

Your experiences were real; even if no one saw them.

No one else needs to see. You did.

I know at each step,

it was the best you could give.

For all the moments you felt so heavy,

so alone,

so afraid,

so weak,

please know, that you are bright, radiant, supported and strong.

I love you.

I should have said so many

I'm retraining myself to stop seeing

you as less.

To see you as courageous.

Not everyone will like you,

and that is not as important

as the fact I like you.

I'm ready to treat you as I should;

as the most important relationship

in my life.

You are beautiful.

You are so much more than good enough.

You are the one I prayed for on my darkest days.

The one to scoop me up and save me.

I am grateful I am you.
