Self Love



Self Love should be like a three-course meal
that leaves no room for dessert
A perfectly sweet buttercream cake you can eat and your tummy won't hurt
Self Love is the beauty of nature
No one needs to say it to be true
Self Love makes things better
It’s like seasoning to any food
Self Love's like reading the last word in a book Self Love's like getting a receipt
Self Love's placing the last piece of a puzzle
Self Love is feeling complete
Self Love is different from a mother's love
A father's, brother's or friend
Self love is love leters you write to yourself
That don't cost a penny to spend

About this poem

Around Valentine, it can be difficult not have a that feeling of loneliness when you don’t have a special someone. It’s easy to forget about an even better love, Self Love; reliable comforting and (the best part) free.
