The Words I Keep

Between us, I want to tell you how much I admire the quiet strength you carry

Nowadays, it's rare to see people who are genuinely nice without trying, and confident without ever appearing like they're better than anyone

You walk with so much grace that it attracts people to you without them even realizing why

I also noticed the effort you put into looking good and feeling good, and it shows in your energy

It's very clear that you take care of yourself because you value your own well-being, and that self-respect is something to be adored

You know.. these qualities do not go unnoticed

AND IF (do forgive my pessimistic view) these came from a place of insecurity in your past, I just wanna say that I am so sorry for the things and people that hurt you so deeply—enough to make you feel that you had to change anything about yourself

BUT at the same time, I wanna tell you that I am so, soo proud of you

You did it, you made it through!

I remember what you said about your face, and how you felt like you had to work on it to meet some kind of standard..

I didn't tell you how it hurt to hear that from you, I wanted to tell you that no.. you do not have to, you do not need to, but you can.. because you are beautiful and captivating just as you are
