“i will tell you, my daughter
of your worth.
Not your beauty.
Everyday (your beauty is a given. every being is born beautiful)
.
knowing your worth
can save your life.
raising you on beauty alone,
you will be starved.
you will be starved.
you will be raw.
you will be weak.
easy stomach.
always in need of someone telling you how beautiful you are.”
"Emotional Nutrition" by Nayyirah Waheed
