Perfection

Perfection

A Poem by Courtney
"

Today was the first day I let myself be happy in weeks.. Then for the first time in my life I looked in the mirror and thought that you know what? I'm perfect in my way; and I felt beautiful. :)

"
I looked in the mirror
And liked what I saw
True beauty ne'er clearer
I saw not a flaw

This feeling oh so new
Never before known
Perfection through and through
Love for self has grown

Ever afraid to feel
Out the window now
Allow the broken heal
Sidekick's turn to bow

Today I saw my own perfection
When I looked at my reflection

Aw, this was beautiful! It's always such a wonderful feeling to finally accept yourself the way you are and smile. It takes a lot of courage for a girl to look in the mirror and like what she sees, but I'm glad you achieved it.

Aw thanks a bunch! :)
Short and sweet.
"Love for self has grown" is a beautiful line and so are the last two "Today I saw my own perfection
When I looked at my reflection".
