(To my fellow girls, you probably might want to read this.)
There's something so unique about heartache's crepuscular room. I've never felt myself missing my insecurities...Until now. Yearning always stays the same when it's all about having a perfect body. This feeling feels so unreal when you could feel unhappy and happy at the same time. To the people who are body-shamed, to the girls at school who have intense feelings of insecurity, don't fear to embrace your flaws. To my washed-out blues, thank you, and I mean, thank you for teaching me what lessons those tears could've taught me. For the past couple of years, being suffocated by painful silence and walls of despondency, I want you to know one thing; there's always going to be someone in your life who holds the webs of patriarchy that kept you trapped in forevermore agony, and it's your choice to stay silent, or fight back. To insecurity, thank you, and I mean thank you, for teaching me reality, and to the swords that pierced me thru the heart, thank you, and I mean thank you, for hardening my heart. ❤️
