Always remember, your haters are your biggest fans. Those who criticize you are only begging you to get better.


I am nothing

Not comprised of anything

I have no one

To shine on me like a sun

I am alone

A misfit, different pieces of fabric, 

Together sewn

And yet,

I'll bet,

There is someone who cares,

Out there,

Somewhere,

For I am whole and true and fair,

And good and kind and do I dare,

Say talented and pretty?

People who feel empty inside

Forget there are beautiful things,

Inside of them, trying to stay alive, and thrive;

I am something
