Selfish Request

Tell me I'm beautiful

That you like what you see

Not just superficially

But love me realistically

When my hair is chaos

When I'm in simple sweats

When my eyes hold back tears

When my skin is a mess

When my voice cracks up

When my mind is in shambles

When my thoughts have stranded

When life is too much to handle

I know it's a selfish request

But when I'm not at my best

I need your love to manifest

When you see all of my fragility

Please do it then when loving myself

Seems like the greatest impossibility
