I Am Beautiful Poem by Yoyama Magwashu

There was a time when I didn't like myself at all. I thought I was a cruel joke. But now I've come to realise that maybe I am not cute, but I am beautiful.
Why should I try to change who I look like, what my race is? No. I am beautiful because that's the skin I was born with. I love it and I am proud of it.
To this day, the first thing that I do every morning is look in the mirror. I'll tell myself, 'Look at your skin. Look at your teeth and your smile. You are beautiful, you are worthy of love and respect. Don't let the storm make you forget it.'

I am beautiful because I embrace my individuality, and I stand tall in my authenticity. My inner beauty shines through, captivating hearts and inspiring others to embrace their own uniqueness.
I am beautiful like a field of wildflowers, vibrant and full of life. My spirit is resilient, blooming even in the face of adversity, reminding people of the beauty that can arise from challenges.
I am beautiful.
