In the quiet whispers of dawn’s first light,
I found a reflection, so tender, so bright.
A heart once shadowed by doubt and despair,
Now beats with a rhythm, of self-care and repair.

Through valleys of sorrow and peaks of delight,
I learned to cherish my own inner might.
No longer bound by the chains of disdain,
I rise with a spirit, free from pain.

Each scar tells a story, a testament true,
Of battles I’ve faced and the strength I drew.
In the mirror’s gaze, I see not just a face,
But a soul reborn, in love’s warm embrace.

So, here’s to the journey, both rugged and smooth,
To the love within that needs no proof.
For in this heart, where self-love resides,
I find my peace, where my true self abides.
