'Still Beautiful' by Ravyn LaRue


I'm tremendously happy due to Sarah Bartley's Tattoo
Partially because she is wonderful and her mantras are marvelous
But also, selfishly, because she's all about self love
And she shows her confidence through parts of her
Similar to my own parts, that I myself still struggle with
It brought me back, sadly, to the class at columbia where
I showed the drawings on my back and I heard choirs of snickering
Because, no surprise here, my back is as fat as the rest of me
I couldn't help feeling a tad hurt, though, really, why would I expect any better?
Nevertheless, I did my best to shrug it off
But, I'll tell you, self love is so much easier when you're surrounded by those who love you
So I saw this pretty picture radiating her confidence on my boring white newsfeed
And my heart couldn't help but leap for joy
As my mind imagined what tattoos I might get on my own rolling hills
