Insecurities

A quick thought on what plagues the youngsters of today

Many a time I think

Why am I like this?

When someone says I'm fat

I walk to the nearest mirror to see

Whenever someone ignores me

I begin to have a doubt

Am I not worth their attention?

Whenever someone screams at me

Am I really a fault here?

Whenever someone passes me by

Am I not worth a second glance?

Why don't they realize 

That I just want to be me?

They themselves are insecure and want

To see others in a similar state

They do all they can to demean

Scorn and hurt others so that

They may convince themselves 

Of their own adequacy

What many don't realize

Is that they are perfect

Made in God's image they were

And to Him they will return

He alone has a right to judge

As he alone truly knows us

For I am only me

And no one else can be

Anyone other than themselves

Remember that you are perfect

And love life free

Free of all worries

Free of all problems

Free of all negativity

Free of all insecurity.

For this one, there is no particular arrangement, or rhyme scheme or anything. I just felt like getting it out. Hope it's good.
