Self love

I was too tired of pretending what I wasn’t. Trying too hard to fit in that I completely betrayed my own real self. But it is the hard times-when the dark isn’t too dark to hide your insecurities but dark enough to make you invisible and lonely-you realize that you need to love yourself, accept yourself. Why do people say try to be a better version of yourself? So that your inner self grow along with your skin. You water your own roots, take care of them and then see them blooming. Hard times might still come but then you will fight it on your own and for your own. And that will truly mean that you love yourself.
