“Come witness my journey / Be delighted in my self-respect”

"and realize that i’m due for a change

which requires me to remain the same

just a bit more accepting

of the woman i ought to become"

"i value time off—and self-love

and what comes along with peace

such as breathing through the clear breeze

sometimes forgetting about my oxygen-thief"

This poem sends a message to not hide and to not fear loving or being who you are.
