two nine eight. Shrinking

Please listen and watch.

 

I could have cropped my hips out. I could have made my arms smaller. I could have made myself appear thinner than I really am. But what's the point? Why should I listen to the self-hatred ingrained so thoroughly within me? Why should I be insecure about putting this up here for anyone to see? Why should I be insecure about things that are unchanging, beliefs, realities?

 

I'm allowed to be comfortable in my own skin. I'm allowed to be confident and sure of myself.

 

When it is communicated to me that I am worthless, ugly, a burden...I am allowed to stand up and say no. I'm not.
