Self-love

if you loved yourself

as much as I love you

you'd eat your vegetables everyday

you'd always look both ways before crossing the rode

you'd tie up your shoelaces twice, just in case

you wouldn't have to cover your wrists with bracelets

you wouldn't listen to the whispers on the corridors

you'd know that they don't really know you 

you wouldn't skip any meals

or refuse something as good as chocolate

because you'd look in the mirror and you'd know

that there's absolutely nothing wrong with you

you'd smile to strangers on the streets

because you'd know that your smile

is the most beautiful of all

and only your smile

has the power turn person's life around

so if you loved yourself

just half as much as I love you

you'd love yourself endlessly
