Beautiful
I am strong
I am beautiful
My past do not define me.
I am bold, I am beautiful. I love hard because I love me.
I am stronger than I was yesterday and wiser today.
I am bold.
I am beautiful
my love soars high; it captures the beauty of my eyes and the dimple of my smile.
I am proud to be me, special and unique.
Every freckle, scar, and mark makes me who I am.
Strong, bold, and beautiful . . .
