When you love yourself.

Love yourself.

_____________________

Doing this will

Elevate you

And flatten those

Who

Are uncomfortable
_____________________

With seeing

Contentment in others.
_____________________

They will lash out

In word

And deed,

Breathing fire

_____________________

Or with

Narrowed gazes,

Watching,
_____________________

Resentment weighing

Down their insides

As they are

Unable to fathom
_____________________

The peace that resides

In you.
