Self-Love

O, my love, how I have longed for you

To fill my heart with your sweet embrace.

I have searched for you in all the wrong places,

In the arms of others, in the depths of my face.

But now I see that you were here all along,

Waiting for me to open my eyes and see.

You are the light that shines within my soul,

The warmth that fills me when I am cold.

You are the strength that I need to carry on,

The courage that I need to face my fears.

You are the beauty that I see in the mirror,

The love that I feel for all my peers.

So come to me, my love, and let us be one.

Let us embrace each other in the light.

Let us love ourselves for who we are,

And let us never be afraid to be bright.

For we are worthy of love,

And we are worthy of respect.

We are worthy of all that life has to offer,

And we are worthy of happiness.

So love yourself, my love,

And know that you are loved.

You are the most precious thing in the world,

And you deserve all the best.
