Poems for the Signs

by Michaela Angemeer

you are allowed to be your full self. do not dim your light or change your identity for anyone. the weird parts of you, the things you feel shame around. they are beautiful and they are meant to be seen. the right people will find you. the right people will see your bravery. the right people will look at all the parts of you that you weren't sure about, and they'll adore them. pretending to be someone else will only make you feel empty. you deserve to be loved for who you are. there are so many blessings looking for you. and the only way they can find you is if you start to live your life for you.

you can only help others if you help yourself first

my life is beautiful but i can only focus on the spot on the wall

one day it will finally feel like it’s in the past

what if i’m not a sad girl anymore what if i’m the happiest i’ve ever been
