Redefine Me

A Poem

By AllisonPublished 3 years ago 1 min read

I was always labeled as ugly.

Worthless.

Fat.

Retarded.

Untrustworthy.

Disrespectful.

Selfish.

Redefine me.

I have always been told how I’m not good enough.

Pressured to do things I did not want to do.

How I need to lose weight.

That no one will love me.

How I should never have been adopted.

It’s no wonder nobody wanted me.

Pushed to the limits.

Redefine me.

I am beautiful.

Worthy.

Comfortably happy.

Smart.

Trustworthy.

Respectful.

Thankful.

Redefine me.

I am not what the naysayers say.

I am wanted.

I always have been.

Yes, life has it’s ups and downs but I’m living, which is more than what other’s are doing.

Yes, I need to lose weight, but it is not the end of the world.

I am loved. Maybe not by many, but that’s still better than nothing.

I am cared for, and I am more than capable of anything I put my mind too.

Redefine me.

So, redefine me.

Keep it real.

Truthful.

This, I will.

Not for everyone else.

But for me.

Yes!

I will redefine me.
