Self Esteem

Self Esteem

A Poem by Cari Lynn Vaughn
"

Consumed by others opinions of you and their acceptance or rejection of you.

"
Self Esteem

You put a drop in the sea
But the drop consumes the ocean
And I cannot live with this fat ugly person
that is me
I cannot stop this loathsome emotion
My salvation
My very death
When you stop breathing
My Breath
