This poem is Inspired By You Say by Lauren Daigle


I keep fighting demons in my mind that tell me,I'm not enough

I believe every single thing they tell me, like how I'll never measure up

Am I more than just

My mother's daughter

or my brothers sister

Please tell me who I am ,thunder thighs is all I see

So tell me who I am because

When I look into the mirror

And when I don't recognize the reflection staring back at me

I realize,I need to know

You say I'm loved

in your arms

but when you yelled at me

flashes though my memory

So I slice my arm,

and I mar it with scars

I don't feel a thing

You tell me I am strong when

I feel I am weak

I know it's true because the voices in my mind agree with me

and they have always been there for me

I hear the voices tell me all these harsh truths

and what they say of me,

I believe

what they say of me
