I hate myself

Lefty

I hate myself 

Some days 

I always want 

To look different

I wish I knew 

How beautiful 

I actually am  

 

I hate myself 

Some days 

But when doubt creeps in 

You lose when you listen 

To the negative voices 

They don't help

 

I hate myself 

Some days 

I want to tell you how I feel 

But the damage is so deep 

I keep drowning 

In my own sadness

 

I hate myself 

Some days 

I want to be enough 

I want the love 

That I give away 

 

I hate myself 

For falling in love 

Over and over again 

Just to not love myself

    That love is within you Lefty as your words show.

    Welcome to MPS.

    Tough one. Strangely enough, beautiful people always have hang-ups. I'm not sure if it's because people keep telling them how good they look. A bit like me playing football in a messi role.

    Learning to love yourself can be the most challenging endeavor, but also the most rewarding. You are worthy of the love from yourself. Heartfelt write Lefty. 👍
