“I can't say I know
the burdens you bear
the struggles you face
or the fights you have fought
in learning to love yourself
I do not have the answers
the solutions
or remedies
you may be searching for
but I do have something
and though it's just one thing
I will give you all that I can
and through my kindness
I hope you will start to see
that you alone have always been
and you alone will always be
just that,
enough.
for everyone.
for everything.”
