I am

Until recently, I believed the lies they hurled at me The very ones that question the essence of my existence I might not be all that smart However, I knew how to tell lies and truth apart I realized if not for anything That I was made to be something And not just that but one that mattered At that point, I knew mere words couldn't make me shattered Like a veil had been lifted from my face I could see me beyond the haze I was beautiful even to me And I stopped caring about the opinions of others © Mega_word
