To the girl who feels like she is never enough,
enough for herself,
or enough for the world,
you are overflowing with everything and more.
I want you to know that,
you are never in solitary, although
this world may make you feel
small.
But you are towering over mountains,
dictating the tides.
Giving the sun a purpose,
and the stars a reason to shine.
Yes, this world is big,
sometimes even scary.
But full of endless opportunities,
of which you are worthy.
Please have the confidence to soar.
I promise you,
you are more
than enough, more than valuable,
more than you could ever dream to be.
Enough already, stop.
The thoughts in your head are mistaken.
They want you to feel insignificant,
worthless, maybe even barren.
Those are not words that describe you.
Erase them from your vocabulary.
You are many things,
but those harsh words are untrue.
Ask yourself.
If the words you say about yourself,
were the words you said to someone you love,
would that person be happy?
Be kind to not only others,
but to yourself too.
Words are powerful,
and so are you.
You are intimidating,
and the ones around you,
who try to dull your spark,
are nothing but green with envy.
But you, my friend, have gold in your heart.
So, the next time you feel
that you are negligible, hollow, trivial,
replace those thoughts with the words:
Delightful, captivating, enchanting.
Sweet girl, if you only saw,
the way they looked at you,
or how your eyes light up when you smile.
Maybe then you'd believe you had them in awe.
You are worthy of love.
because you simply exist.
No further explanation,
or reason for a list.
Everyone around you knows,
“more than enough”.
Does not do the essence of your beauty,
the slightest bit of Justice.
But if you need a constant reminder,
for how the world needs you.
Write it on a piece of paper,
Or maybe in a tattoo.
