Pretty Ugly Beautiful Person -- A Poem Appreciation

A big shout out to the poet Abdullah Shoaib for creating such an impactful poem illustrating the instability of body image.  When I read the poem from top to bottom, I feel such an empathy of sadness for anyone who may feel this way about themselves--even if it's feeling this way in moments of time which people do occasionally.  But reading it from the bottom up fills me with hope.  Because feeling bad about yourself can and should be a temporary moment in time. A moment when you can turn around and decide that you are beautiful and worthy of being loved.  

I love this kind of artistry--a poignant piece that effectively illustrates the highs and lows of one's self esteem. 

Remember, "there is beauty inside...that matters" and you are a "very beautiful person".  

Wishing everyone light & love! XOXO 😘
