Self Confidence is Weird at First

It is so weird 

to look in the mirror 

and not have the urge 

to point out every flaw

 of the person 

staring back at you. 

It's strange

 to wear bright, 

bold 

colors 

without the fear 

that too much attention 

will be drawn 

to my fat stomach.

It's so bizarre

 to be able 

to walk down the street 

in short shorts 

with my pale, 

fat,

scarred

 legs out 

and just not care

 what others think.

It's weird,

strange,

and so bizarre at first,

but damn,

it feels so good 

to love yourself.

Well, self confidence is certainly a very weird & quite a fascinating thing to be lived along. Sometimes, it brings what we want so sometimes makes us all looking like a fool in front of others, however, whatever it is, I happen to know, as long as you are full of happiness (the happiness of nothing), you're good... even the world's so good to you. Once you're hated by your own, even the world's totally seemed gone to you. So yeah, love yourself, no matter what. I sorta like the message you rendering axross this very world through your very poetry. Keep writing. Ans stay beautiful, sweetie. Looking forward to reading your work.
