I wish every girl was taught this way...
Beautiful



I want you to hear me

Hold these words, remember their whisper

You are beautiful and a gift

Take a seat, write down what I say

I wish every girl was taught this way



From me to you, everything uttered here must be true

You must love yourself, for you are a treasure

He will treasure you because you love yourself

Don’t be afraid, or shy of who you are

Though not many of us have gotten that far



Look at the chalkboard, yes it’s blank now

But come and tell me who you are

I want you to write every part of your soul in color

With each word I want you to cry, recognize your loveliness

Don’t let the world say you are anything less







Beautiful, that is your name

Don’t let him see you cry, don’t cry for anyone who is not blinded by your shine

A brilliant star in the sky, winds rise, flow through your hair

Let sun rays rain down on you and glisten

Dear sister I beg of you, take note, listen



You are everything a girl is, can be

Look in the mirror those eyes hold a secret

A secret of power, a secret of haunting potential

Rise, head towards the door look back once at the words of you

And keep them forever, let them reclaim you
