ENOUGH

 
I may have a face that's ugly from scars of youth full of acne
my hair may be unkempt and in total disarry, but, at least its clean
body is scarred for life from self mutilation or surgeries unseen
never have I been considered ever pretty enough.

My cheeks may be ripe for pinching to tell me that I am just cute
hips full and round like my belly sometimes is unlike my ass
louder than life itself mouth and oversized bust, no substitute
never have I been considered to be slim enough.

I've been labeled as stupid and told
was immature and incompetent
the future that was painted before
me was always dim and bleak
told I was unlovable and unworthy
of any compasison I would seek
never have I been considered to be
good enough.

Flawed, broken, corrupted at the very core, so I have often been told
good health, wealth and/or fortunes
I'd never be blessed to behold
Venomous, degrading and corrosive words cutting my very soul
never have I been considered to be considered enough.

Adorn in slutty clothes, sold so
others have their needs met
wearing facades and masks so
I would be easier to forget
restricting my every bite and slowly
fading away to nothingness
never have I been considered to be
good enough.

I've always been the people pleaser, a compliant, ever-obligating girl
Pushed beyond my limits and forced not to collapse under the strain
no regard given to my physical or emotional well being or pain
never I ever been considered to be
considered enough.

The mirror has cracked and is now
since been completely shattered
in its glistening fragments I am
finally seeing what truly matters
my heart beats now with hope and
unfiltered truths its what remain
I am beautiful, loveable, curvaceous,
worthy....I AM ENOUGH
